| I am a dwarf hedging olive tree with a very compact habit and dense small leaved silver/grey foliage.
Producing little to no fruit, I am prized for my ornamental form. Unpruned I will grow to around 3 metres (about 25% of the size of most olive trees) but responding well to frequent pruning, I am an ideal choice for topiary, bonsai and espalier and easily maintained at around 1.5m. Adaptable I am a great choice for a large pot or tub. Like most olives I am a tough plant – an ideal choice for exposed locations and coastal conditions. I tolerate frost and dry conditions well. |
