Description
The Olive Tree is a small evergreen tree valued for its silvery-green foliage and Mediterranean character. It is often grown for ornamental purposes and sometimes for its olives in UK gardens with suitable conditions.
It prefers a sunny, sheltered spot and can tolerate drought once established. Its growth is typically slow to moderate, making it a manageable addition to garden spaces in mild climates.
