No, oleander flowers are poisonous when eaten or chewed on without undergoing any processing. Oleander is an extremely poisonous plant containing a potentially lethal cardiac glycoside known as oleandrin. Swallowing as few as 5-10 whole flowers can be fatal to humans and animals. The sapogenin found in the plant can cause skin irritation, dermatitis, and rash if it comes into contact with skin and eyes.
