| In my parents neighborhood, there has been an Oleander shrub growing for about 30 years.
The house and land sold where the Oleander was and I noticed today that the new owners had cut the shrub all the way down and plan on taking the whole thing out. The limbs were on the ground and I picked up some that were old and new wood. Will these root since the plant was cut in the middle of winter?

| In Phoenix, 40 years ago, I did an experiment for a university lab where I bundled oleander cuttings and buried them upside down like some old textbooks recommended for moving grape cuttings over great distances. I got about 70% success after planting them upright in the spring. |

| You should have no problem starting the cuttings "inside" at this or any other time of the year. |

| I just found a seed pod on one Oleander stem with feathery seeds. How do I plant and grow these? Thansk! |
