Olive Tree Standards 80cm (Pair) Bring a warm Mediterranean feel to your garden this summer with this fantastic standard olive bush. These well-established plants have been professionally grown with a wonderful ball of foliage aloft an elegant stem. Despite their Mediterranean heritage, olives are surprisingly tough & will happily grow in the UK down to -8C in winter, although best of you can protect them a little. With its neatly shaped, evergreen grey-green foliage, this olive is perfect in a border or patio pot they will also look great in a pot in a conservatory. They love hot, sunny spots & thrive in free-draining soil. They produce small, but insignificant creamy flowers in spring, which self-pollinate, & may produce small fruits in hot, dry summers with plenty of time to ripen. They look so exotic & Mediterranean though, you should grow them anyway. Olives are low maintenance, easy to grow & very slow growing
- ideal for small gardens or busy gardeners. Great value & will add a touch of class to your patio. All our Olives are sourced from specialist growers who are regularly inspected & tested for plant pests & diseases, including the new disease threat Xylella. We do not source Olives from High Risk areas. This is followed by further checks & inspections on our own Lincs nursery by DEFRA.
