Overview
Seeds of the European Olive Tree Olea europaea 5 pcs Mediterranean Tree with Edible Fruits Olives and Grey-Green Leaves for Pot or Greenhouse

Olea europaea, the European olive tree, is a well-known Mediterranean tree cultivated for centuries for its fruits. Olives are edible, but freshly picked they are very bitter, therefore they are pickled before consumption or used to produce olive oil. The image shows dark purple ripe fruits among narrow grey-green leathery leaves, which are characteristic of the olive tree. The pack contains 5 seeds, from which you can grow your own tree from scratch. In our conditions, the olive tree is most commonly grown in a pot, which can be placed outside in summer and moved to a greenhouse or a bright hallway in winter.

Key features:

  • Edible fruits — olives are consumed after pickling, raw they are distinctly bitter, and they are also used for pressing olive oil, making this a tree with practical uses.
  • Dark purple olives — ripe fruits have a dark purple colour, as clearly seen in the image, and are the main decorative and utilitarian feature of the tree.
  • Grey-green leaves — narrow leathery leaves with a grey-green hue are typical of the olive tree and give it an unmistakable Mediterranean appearance throughout the year.
  • Symbol of the Mediterranean — the olive tree has been cultivated for centuries in olive groves and is one of the most characteristic trees of southern Europe, making it appealing as a collector's item.
  • Pot cultivation — the young tree is grown in a pot here, it can stand outside on a terrace or balcony in summer and is moved to a bright unheated room in winter.
  • Pack of 5 seeds — the smaller pack is suitable for trying out cultivation or for growers who want to obtain several young trees for themselves or as a gift.
  • Growing from seeds — you have complete control over the entire development of the plant from germination to young tree and can adapt it to your conditions and experience.
  • Long-lived plant — olive trees are known for their longevity, so you can enjoy the grown tree for many years and gradually shape it.

Contents of the package:

  • 1x pack of Olea europaea seeds (5 pcs)

Seeds of the European olive tree are an interesting choice for growers who want to cultivate their own Mediterranean tree with edible fruits. Dark purple olives and narrow grey-green leaves make the olive tree a decorative plant that will enhance a terrace, balcony, or conservatory. The pack contains 5 seeds, so you can try growing from the very beginning and watch how a small seed transforms into a young tree. Growing an olive tree from seed requires patience, but the reward is a plant nurtured by your own care. If you are looking for both a utilitarian and ornamental plant for a pot, these seeds are a good choice.
