Olive

A slow-growing evergreen tree with silvery leaf undersides. Fruiting requirements differ from those for foliage growth.

Care begins with understanding

• Provide full sun and fertile, well-drained soil.
• Drought tolerance develops after establishment; assess soil moisture rather than using a fixed watering schedule.
• Check the cultivar, pollination and winter chilling requirements before expecting a crop.
