Hardy Olive

Grow your own olives for use at the table or for making your own high quality olive oil on one of the most cold tolerant and adaptable of all olive trees. This is one of the earliest fruiting varieties! Can produce fruit at a very young age, even when only 1' high! Fragrant, white blossoms in spring are followed by an abundance of small, brown, tasty fruits in summer. Easy to grow in containers, indoors, or in the ground. Can be kept to 2-5' if grown in containers, and can even be grown as bonsais. Very rugged and drought tolerant, but prefers well-drained soil. Self-fertile. Blooms in the spring, fruits in the summer.
