Season of Interest

Spring to Autumn


  • Olives (Olea europaea) are evergreen trees that will add a Mediterranean touch to the garden. With our decorative hessian gift wrap it makes a lovely gift for a housewarming present or just a little something for a friend or family member. This plant arrives as a mature bush just like the picture - some are already producing fruits (not all however).

  • Olive bush grows very slowly, so don’t require much pruning. However, pinching out young plants can help to encourage them to develop a branching shape.

  • If you have a protected city garden or live in a mild area, olives can be grown outdoors as long as you give them a sunny position and plant them in well-drained soil - for example, against a warm wall would be ideal. In cold or northern regions, winter protection in a conservatory, for example, will be required.

  • Add a personalised gift message to post the gift to directly.

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.
