Bring the Mediterranean Home with an Olea Europaea Bonsai Olive Tree

Olea europaea-the treasured Common Olive-has been cultivated for thousands of years for its ornamental beauty and iconic fruit. This hardy evergreen features distinctive silvery-green foliage, a striking gnarled trunk, and compact clusters of fragrant white flowers each spring. Supplied as a healthy bonsai specimen (30-40cm tall including its 21cm decorative bowl), this olive tree is ready to display indoors by a bright window or outdoors in the garden.

• All-Season Interest: Evergreen leaves keep your space vibrant and textured, even through winter.
• Flower & Fruit: Enjoy clusters of subtle, sweet-scented white blossoms in spring, followed by real olives. Harvest green or fully ripe in late autumn for home use.

Easy Growing Guide

• Site: Prefers a sunny spot-think conservatory, patio, or a sheltered place in the garden.
• Soil: Needs free-draining soil or compost (avoid waterlogged roots). If in a pot, check for good drainage holes.
• Watering: Water regularly in spring and summer; reduce in winter.
• Pruning: Prune lightly in early spring or autumn to maintain shape. Pruning is optional for established form.
• Hardiness: Tolerates UK winters but protect from severe frost if kept outdoors in pots.

Care & Planting Tips

• Repot every few years to refresh the growing medium and inspect roots.
• No special feed is required-general-purpose fertiliser works well in spring and summer.

Design Inspiration

• Group with other Mediterranean plants like lavender, rosemary, or dwarf citrus for classic patio schemes.
• Ideal for both contemporary courtyard gardens or traditional balconies.

FAQs

• When is the best time to plant or position my olive bonsai? Early spring or autumn are ideal times. Place outdoors after the last frost or enjoy indoors year-round near a sunny window.
• How fast will my olive tree grow? Growth is slow; expect it to maintain compact proportions for years with occasional repotting and pruning.
• Does the tree need special soil? It prefers well-drained, neutral to slightly alkaline compost or garden soil. Avoid soggy conditions.
