Oleander?!?! not.....

HI folks,
Happy Thanksgiving to all,
Having just spent a great part of  Thanksgiving  Day on I-80,
going to and from Sacramento,  in horrendous traffic, I couldn't
wait to get home and back to my garden mail. I wonder if other's
find this list to be such a calming, pleasant place. I find when
I'm having a stressful day, which isn't too often, I usually
start thinking about how soon I can get home, to my garden, my
pets, and yes....my computer.  And there you were, ongoing chit
chat about hebes, columbine, whatever. THANK YOU!

Anyway, I had a note form my brother tonight, looking to find a
source for 5 gallon Oleanders. I flamed him mercilessly about
his poor taste, and made a bunch of  alternative suggestions,
etc, but I also tried to find some quickly on line, and there
was not one nursery (on my list) that carried them.
Nerium-Oleander.

I thought, this is the time of the year people make those lists,
you know the ones. Ten best, ten worst. What d'ya say? Shall we?
