An oleander is a bush that stays green, with flowers that may be white, pink, or purple. People plant it along hot roads and in gardens because it is tough and looks full. Though actually it is not a gentle garden friend: every part of the plant can make you very sick if you eat it, and even the smoke from burning it can be dangerous. It is a plant to look at, not to chew, and not to put on a cooking fire. The flowers are pretty; that is why the warning matters.
組成From French oléandre, from Medieval Latin oleandru, from Late Latin lorandrum, perhaps an alteration of rhododendron. The “perhaps” is as far as the story is sure.
