Olea Europea

Common Olive

Olea are small or medium-sized evergreen trees with simple, opposite leathery leaves. Flowers are in terminal or axillary panicles and are small, whitish and followed by an ovoid, oblong or globose drupe. Olea Likes a sunny spot and thrives best in fertile well-drained soil.

Olea Europea is a slow-growing evergreen tree which develops a round head. Leathery, long, silver-grey leaves. Tiny, fragrant creamy white flowers in summer followed by edible olives, green ripening to black.

The Olea Europaea - Olive 1/4 Standard is an elegant and charming addition to any garden or patio, celebrated for its graceful, elevated structure and evergreen foliage. This topiary features a refined form that showcases its silvery-green leaves, bringing a touch of Mediterranean allure and structure to your outdoor space.

Olea Europaea, commonly known as the olive tree, is a hardy evergreen native to the Mediterranean region. It is renowned for its silvery-green, lanceolate leaves and its ability to thrive in sunny, well-drained conditions. Olive trees are traditionally grown for their edible fruit, olives, and their oil, but they also make striking ornamental plants due to their attractive foliage and unique forms.

Where to Site Your Olea Europaea

The Olive 1/4 Standard thrives in locations that receive full sun. It prefers well-drained soil to ensure healthy root growth and prevent waterlogging. Regular watering is essential, particularly during dry spells, to maintain its vibrant appearance and promote healthy growth. However, it becomes relatively drought-tolerant once established.

Growth and Pruning

This evergreen beauty typically grows to a height of about 4-5 feet, making it an excellent choice for adding height and elegance to your garden. Regular pruning is necessary to preserve its neat shape and encourage healthy growth. Trim the topiary to maintain its form and remove any dead or damaged branches. A thorough trim in late winter or early spring, along with occasional touch-ups, will help keep the plant looking its best.
