Show me something…stop waving ur hands…..
You will get more likes if you wear some short shorts, a tank top, and actually demonstrate the pruning. It could be a win win for everybody.
You can trim these to any shape you like, even cut it to the ground, it will grow right back. It is almost impossible to kill them unless you excavate it out of the ground, or chemically kill it. these are true survival plants.
I missed the pruning period. Can I prune it in Spring. If so, when is the best time to do so? I inherited mine and it's a bit out of control.
Thumbs down – why did I watch your video if you weren't actually going to demonstrate pruning! Click bait.
A teacher that talks but apparently can not do… I want my 2 minutes back – what a waste of time.
im with everyone else I came here to se exactly where to cut the branch not doing me any good to hear u say it SHOW ME
Ummmm did I miss the part where she was to show us how to prune the oleander ? Useless…..
You should re-title your video or, better yet, demonstrate something related to "How to Prune Oleander."
Very useless video.
Oleander flowers don't smell.
Thank you but do you need to deadhead the old flowers, I cant find this information any where .
For goodness sakes why don’t you show us what you’re talking about?
I wish there was a demonstration on pruning back not just "lecture". thank you
True. Needed actual demonstration!
I hear these are poisonous.
Next time: More Cleavage & lose the bra!
An enthusiastic presenter but why on earth wouldn't you SHOW us how it's done?
Did I hear you mention that Oleander is very poisonous?
What kind of video is this? doesn't even show how to do it. Just waves hands…..
Soooo, you TELL how to prune oleander, but don’t SHOW? K, will look for one that Shows and Tells.😉
I need to see the plant and actual pruning
I was wanting a demonstration
thumbs down because you are not showing me what to do.
REALLY??? SHOW ME an ACTUAL OLEANDER AND SHOW ME WHERE TO TRIM IT IN THE VIDEO – UNREAL – don't know what the hell she is talking about by saying "3 leaves"??? does she mean branches??? video is a waste – thanks for nothing
So you made a VIDEO to tell us, not to SHOW us. Thumbs down
Okay… nice try but seriously, appreciate it 😉
God people are so mean!!! Thank you for all the information! It was really helpful I learned a lot and very much enjoyed your video! People please STOP being mean!
Great info!!! Especially about the gloves and long sleeves!
useless. why did you not demonstrate? if this was your idea of a video, you could have simply typed up a paragragh.
Bruh do you even have one?
Wouldve been nice to see a visual
When the blooms fall off the stalk, do you cut that bare stalk off ?
Hey mam may I email u a picture of my oleander plant and ask u some questions about what I should do
I live in zone 9b in southeastern Florida and it is April, is it too late to prune and not loose flowers. The plant is 15 feet tall.
Can you show us? Don’t know if I should prune under the fork or just below it?
First of all, you don't even show an oleander by you and second of all..SHOW how you prune it! This video is rather useless!
