OLEANDER
Oleander is a dense, fast-growing evergreen shrub that has been growing since ancient times and is native to North Africa and the eastern Mediterranean regions. Oleander, however, is toxic to humans and pets, every part of it, and the outcome of ingesting even a small amount of it can be dire.

Δεν μπορώ να περπατήσω χωρίς πόνο στα πόδια μου ~ αλλά μπορώ ακόμα να μυρίσω τα λουλούδια της πικροδάφνης.
The oleander tree is native to the Mediterranean. It has several legends attached to it and in Greek mythology it symbolized romance and charm. The Biblical Rose of Jericho is also thought to refer to the oleander and medicinal use of the oleander plant dates back at least 3500 years.
