Olive Plant
$20.00
hree young olive trees (Olea europaea) are planted in matching woven rattan/bamboo basket planters with tripod wooden legs, staked with bamboo canes for support as they grow. Each has the classic narrow, elongated silvery-green leaves typical of olive trees, with a slightly grey-green tone on top and a more silvery underside. They're indoor young specimens, still slender and leggy, being trained upright against the stakes — likely just a year or two old.
A few care notes if useful:
- Light: Olive trees need very bright light — ideally several hours of direct sun daily. Indoors, a sunny south-facing window is best.
- Water: Let the soil dry out somewhat between waterings — they don't like soggy roots.
- Growth habit: The staking is a good idea early on to keep the trunk straight; you can remove it once the trunk thickens and stands on its own.
- Pruning: Pinching the tips encourages bushier, fuller growth rather than one leggy leader.
Please note ratan stand is not included for this price.
