Olea europaea is a slow-growing evergreen tree, known for its production of edible olives.
It grows in a short and squat habit, the silvery green leaves being small and lance-shaped.
The trunk is typically gnarled and twisted.
Olive trees produce panicles of tiny white flowers, which generally grow on the previous year's wood and lead on

Ordered 3 on 3 for 2 .
Very surprised how small these trees (more of a plant) are for over £20 each. I was expecting a “mature stem” as described but they are tiny 😞disappointing!

Hope this might grow big enough to plant out but noticed it is imported from Italy so wonder if it's meant to be an indoor plant in this climate?
