My mom gave this to me but she cannot remember the name of it. Growing in a large pot. Plant is currently about 5 ft tall. I bring it inside for the winter. The first flowers are now in bloom. Thank you!

It's Nerium oleander, Oleander. Very pretty but be aware that all parts are toxic. And not hardy in your region, but you know that.

Thank you so much for that info! We have 5 very young children and have kept this in the yard, thankfully without incident. I may have to consider giving it to my gardener neighbor.....
