WILD OLIVE TREE
Olea Africana
You are bidding on 5 seeds
Examples of Olea Africana bonsai
Very hardy, evergreen, drought resistant tree with silvery leaves and scented, greenish flowers in early summer followed by edible purple-black fruits from March to July. The fruit is popular with people and birds. It has rough dark bark. Good bird and insect tree that also makes a beautiful bonsai subject. This neat decorative garden tree can cope with very adverse growing conditions and the addition of two handfuls of lime in the soil when planting will promote faster growth. Older specimens develop a very wide crown therefore it needs space. Plant in sun or partial shade. The timber is beautiful and much sought after. It has many magical and medicinal uses. Grows up to 5-10m.
Sowing instructions will be emailed after purchase
