Bring a taste of the Mediterranean to your home. This variety is revered as both a table olive, for its mild buttery & lightly fruity flavor, as well as an oil olive for its high oil concentration. Tasty fruit & gorgeous gray-green foliage will evoke the rolling Spanish landscapes where this variety is widely grown. Olives hang well on the tree & ripen at different intervals. Drought-tolerant & pest-resistant. Heat-tolerant. Ripens starting in November. This tree is also self-pollinating. They are an easy-care, slow-growing, plant that thrives indoors and outdoors in zones that stay above 25 degrees Fahrenheit. Outdoors they can reach 15-18' tall and 12-14' wide. They prefer bright direct sunlight for at least 6 hours per day. They are a drought-tolerant tree that should only be watered when the soil in the pot is about 50% dry. During the growing season feed with a high nitrogen slow-release fertilizer. Because this is a slow-growing plant you may only need to repot every other year. Shipping and handling can be very tough on live plants so please be sure to open and check your plant right away. Mist the foliage and check the soil for moisture. Our plant team gives each plant a drink before they are individually shipped and wrapped so they may not need to be watered right away. Overwatering is one of the most common causes of decline in indoor plants. We are unable to ship this plant to California due to restrictions by the California Department of Agriculture.
