I would hold off planting anything until after the first rains in October.

It's not just a question of watering, the ground temperature is too high to be planting just now.

Yes thanks for that just trying to get organised. Could you recommend a good garden centre asI will require quite a few when the weather cools.

Any of the Garden Centres in the Alsancak / Lapta / Karsiyaka area would be able to supply you.

I would shop around and go for the cheapest, provided that the plants look healthy.

Oleander is quite hard to kill

If there are kids around they may eat the seeds when they fall

MaggieMay - also be careful when you get to the trimming stage - the sap can cause rashes on some people - Ive been ok but my husband suffers - doesnt seem to be any reason who seems to be allergic and who not!
