Description

Bring a warm Mediterranean feel to your garden this summer with standard olive bushes! Well-established and professionally grown, each with an ornate ball of foliage aloft an elegant stem.

Despite Mediterranean heritage, olive trees are surprisingly tough and will happily grow in UK winter conditions down to -8C, although it's best if you can protect them a little! With neatly shaped, evergreen grey-green foliage, these trees are perfect for borders or patio containers and also look great in conservatory pots. They love hot, sunny spots and thrive in free-draining soil.

Small creamy flowers emerge in spring, which self-pollinate, and may produce small olive fruits when summer conditions are particularly hot and dry, allowing for plenty of ripening time.

Olives are low maintenance, easy to grow, and very slow growing, ideal for smaller gardens or busy gardeners. Great value, and will add a touch of class to your patio!

All our Olives are sourced from specialist growers who are regularly inspected and tested for plant pests and diseases, including the new disease threat Xylella. We do not source Olives from High Risk areas. This is followed by further checks and inspections on our own Lincs nursery by DEFRA.

Magnificent gift plants for a loved one, each arriving already gift wrapped in a brown hessian bag with a green fabric bow.

Supplied as a pair of established standards in 18cm pots, roughly 80cm tall and gift wrapped, ready to plant or gift.

Top Tips
Olive trees need the sunniest spot available in your garden to encourage your next crop of fruit.
Care Information
  • If planting in a container, use a loam-based compost with the addition of about 20 per cent grit to help with drainage. If planting in the garden, add grit to the planting hole to improve drainage.
  • Pot grown plants should be transferred to a slightly larger pot each spring.
  • Olive Trees are hardy but they benefit from winter protection. Small potted plants can be moved inside, while outside plants can be bubble-wrapped around the pot and fleece used to protect the canopy.
  • Although drought tolerant, pot-grown olives must be watered regularly and not be allowed to dry out.
  • Clip trees occasionally to keep their shape.
Delivery Information

Please allow us 7-10 working days to dispatch your order. Pre-ordered items will be sent as soon as possible after the date quoted and we'll generally ship your entire order with your pre-ordered items. When your order is dispatched, we'll send you another email with details of how to track it.

Most orders are sent on a fully-tracked courier service with Yodel. To avoid perishable items being stuck at depots and deteriorating, no signature is required, and our courier is asked to leave your order in a safe place on your property.

We'll send a tracking link when we dispatch your order, so you know when its due to arrive. Please note, once delivered we cannot be held responsible for loss or theft from your property. If you have any specific delivery instructions, please let us know - there's an option to enter a short message for the courier at the checkout.

Smaller, lighter, single-item orders may be sent through the post with Royal Mail - in which case no tracking is available.

Our experienced nursery team will always send your plants nursery fresh in the perfect condition to thrive when you plant them, so although most plants are very tough and will not be affected by all but the most extreme frosts or heatwaves, we avoid dispatching the most perishable plants if extreme weather is forecast, or over Bank Holiday weekends.

Please note, we cannot guarantee delivery on a certain day or time. Delivery to outlying postcode areas may take 1-2 days longer, dependent on your location.
