Olea europaea is a slow-growing evergreen tree, known for its production of edible olives.
It grows in a short and squat habit, the silvery green leaves being small and lance-shaped.
The trunk is typically gnarled and twisted.
Olive trees produce panicles of tiny white flowers, which generally grow on the previous year's wood and lead on to the production of small olive fruits.

Best Growing Conditions
Olives start out green and eventually all turn black as they ripen. Olives that are harvested when they are still green have a peppery, grassy, or more herbaceous flavour while olives that are harvested when they turn have a milder, buttery flavor.
