Our Olive Tree (Olea europaea) is a premium, nursery-grown plant known for its timeless beauty, resilience, and symbolic meaning. Delivered at a height of 90–100cm, this established tree is ideal for transforming any outdoor space with a classic Mediterranean feel. It features narrow, silver-green leaves and a natural, upright form that adds character and elegance to gardens, patios, balconies, and courtyards.
The Olive Tree is native to the Mediterranean but adapts well to the UK climate. It’s a slow-growing evergreen, offering year-round structure and colour. With the right care, it can grow up to 2–3 metres wide, developing a broad, sculptural shape and, in time, a gnarled trunk—one of its most attractive features. While it may occasionally produce small white flowers or fruit in warmer months, the true beauty of this plant lies in its soft, silvery foliage and architectural form.
Each Olive Tree is delivered at a height of 90–100cm (approx. 3 feet), measured from the base of the pot. With time and care, this tree can achieve an eventual spread of 2 to 3 metres, forming a broad and decorative shape. Its upright structure makes it ideal for container growing, where it can be kept more compact, or it can be planted directly in the ground to encourage larger growth.
The tree is supplied in a nursery pot (varies depending on availability), and is ready for repotting or direct planting into your chosen container or garden bed. Its slender trunk and elegant crown of silvery-green leaves give it a statuesque appearance that suits formal entrances, Mediterranean-themed gardens, and urban patios alike. Lightweight and easy to move when potted, this tree offers flexibility in styling and placement, and its manageable size makes it a standout feature without overwhelming smaller spaces.
