This plant also has medicinal, herbal and beauty therapeutic qualities (please confirm uses with qualified practitioners before using).
The trunks start off a smooth grey when young and can become quite gnarled and twisted with age.
Often found in bonsai and topiary forms.
Great also for hardy pots and container plantings.
Can also be trained as flat espaliers against walls, fences etc for small areas.
Originally from Mediterranean areas, olives can grow in rocky and impoverished soil and can adapt to a wide soil range as they are hardy and resilient; yet the best soil is rich, fertile, well drained.
Use General Purpose fertiliser in Autumn and Spring as per instructions.
They do not like badly drained soil. If your area is waterlogged you will need to raise the soil level by around 50cm with topsoil and plant them into that.
