How to Take Care of Olive Tree

Light: Bright

In addition to direct sunlight, this tree also appreciate bright, indirect light when grown indoors. If placed outdoors, ensure they receive sufficient natural light throughout the day to support healthy growth.

Sun: Direct

These plants are thrive in full sunlight, so it's best to place them in a location where they can receive at least 6-8 hours of direct sunlight each day. Position them near a south-facing window or outdoors in a sunny spot to provide ample sunlight.

Water: When Half Dry

Olea Europaea prefer well-draining soil and do not like to sit in waterlogged conditions. Allow the soil to dry out slightly between watering sessions, then water thoroughly until water begins to drain from the bottom of the pot. During the winter months or when the tree is dormant, reduce watering frequency to prevent root rot.

Humidity: Low

While Olive Trees can tolerate a wide range of humidity levels, they generally prefer moderate humidity. If you live in a dry climate or have indoor heating that reduces humidity levels, consider misting the leaves occasionally or using a humidifier to increase moisture in the air around the plant.

Olive Tree is moderately toxic and can cause some adverse reactions when ingested so it is best to not let your pets eat it, which we advise for all plants in general. The severity of the reaction will depend on how much of the plant is ingested but, if you know your pet typically does not eat your plants, this plant will be suitable for your home.

Pro Tip

To promote healthy growth and encourage fruit production, consider fertilizing this plant during the growing season. Use a balanced fertilizer formulated specifically for fruit trees, and apply it according to the manufacturer's instructions. Fertilize once a month from spring to early fall, then reduce frequency during the winter months when the tree is dormant.

Your Complete Guide to Pot Sizes: What Size Should You Choose?

When selecting a pot for your plant, it's important to find the right size. But with all the different options out there, how do you know which one is best? We're here to help!

MyGreenscape's pot sizes chart is a great resource for finding your perfect fit. Our easy-to-read chart takes out all the guesswork and helps you quickly choose the right size for your plant.

Smaller pots are best for seedlings or small plants just starting out. These tend to be shallow but wide, allowing enough room for the roots of the young plant but not too much where they get overcrowded. Medium-sized pots are ideal when your plant has grown from its infancy and is ready for more space. These are deeper and wider than small pots, so that it can accommodate larger root systems - making sure your plant gets enough nourishment while still giving it breathing room. Large pots are top choice if you have an established plant in need of lots of space - think trees and large shrubs! The spacious depth and width allow plenty of room for deep root systems without struggling for air or light.

No matter what size you choose, MyGreenscape has got you covered, with our pot sizes chart guaranteeing you find the perfect fit every time!

My experience with Greenscape has been fabulous. I purchased 4 plants in my first order- Philodendron Pink Princess, Brasil, White Wizard and an Olive tree. Each one of them more than met my expectations, but it was the customer service that really stood out. From purchase to the follow up after I received the plants, the support was amazing. When their website says they will be there before and after purchase, it is not an exaggeration. I couldn't be more pleased and will continue to use Greenscape for gifts and to add to my own collection.
