Product Description

Olea europaea is one of the most famous evergreen crop plants of the Mediterranean region, captivating not only with its olive fruit but also with its stunning ornamental value. It typically grows 3–10 meters tall, featuring narrow leaves that are gray-green on top and silvery underneath. Older specimens develop a distinctively thick, twisted trunk and can live for hundreds or even thousands of years. It strictly loves sun and heat, thriving in dry summers. Mature trees are highly drought-tolerant, but waterlogging must be avoided. Its frost tolerance is moderate: mature trees can withstand brief drops to -7 °C and -10 °C, but prolonged, wet frost is dangerous. In colder climates, it is best kept as a potted plant so it can be safely overwintered indoors. With proper care, it can even produce fruit in cooler regions, though planting multiple varieties together is recommended for a better yield.

Plant Care

Requires loose, well-draining soil. Water regularly when young; becomes drought-tolerant as it matures. Avoid overwatering and waterlogging. Potted keeping and frost-free overwintering are recommended in colder climates.
