Nerium oleander is a shrub or small tree in the dogbane family Apocynaceae, toxic in all its parts. It is the only species currently classified in the genus Nerium. It is most commonly known as nerium or oleander, from its superficial resemblance to the unrelated olive Olea.

It is so widely cultivated that no precise region of origin has been identified, though southwest Asia has been suggested.

The ancient city of Volubilis in Morocco may have taken its name from the Berber name alili or oualilt for the flower.

Oleander is one of the most poisonous commonly grown garden plants. Oleander flowers are showy, profuse, and often fragrant, which makes them very attractive in many contexts.

Oleander grows locally or naturally in Mauritania, Morocco, Portugal in the east, and in the southern regions of China, Yunnan. They are mostly cultivated in tropical and subtropical areas. In Sri Lanka it is known as kaneru.
