Add item to quote to see pricing

Olea europaea (Field Grown) is the esteemed Olive Tree, a timeless virtue to any landscape. A robust sentinel in our "Trees" ensemble, it enchants with its gnarled trunk and suave, silvery-green leaves that dance in the sun. The Olive Tree exudes resilience by thriving in full sunlight and adapting to less-than-perfect soils, even maintaining its composure during periods of drought once rooted. Its unmatched endurance is paralleled by yearly cycles of charming, petite white flowers that subtly perfume the air, and tempting olives that mature from a bright green to a deep, lustrous purple. Towering at a majestic height between 20 to 30 feet and stretching to a spread of 15 to 20 feet, Olea europaea serves as a picturesque stand-alone piece while also providing a natural privacy screen. The Olive Tree embodies the ideal blend of visual intrigue, hardiness, and year-round allure, promising a touch of Mediterranean charm right at your doorstep. Whether you're shaping a rustic, a xeriscape garden or aiming for a bountiful harvest, this evergreen gem is a worthy contender for your outdoor sanctum.
