The Story
A Black Sea varietal, a pretty tree, to 15-20 ft tall, with a vigorous upright form enhanced by leaves also held upright in an attractive pattern, reflecting light beautifully in our Mediterranean garden. As with most olive, best in sun, fertile and well-drained soil, and water to establish. Withholding water in later summer allows plants to harden off in anticipation of cold weather. Very frost tolerant, probably to 0F, USDA zone 7.
EUROPEAN OLIVE
Oleaceae
