8 year old olive trees |
| A hint of the Mediterranean... |
This size of olive tree has a good, thick trunk and a large rounded, open head. They are among the nicest olive trees we have had at the nursery and are already proving to be very popular.
These olive trees will also be ideal for growing in containers and look magnificent on a patio or terrace
These trees are sourced in Tuscany from family run nurseries which have been grafting olive trees for 3 or 4 generations.

| We currently have the following varieities available at the nursery: |
| Olea europaea 'Frantoio' |
Olea europaea ‘Frantoio’ is one of our favourite varieties; it makes the classic small to medium sized olive tree that is indicative of the olive groves around the foothills of Tuscany. It is a self-fertile tree, as well as being a good pollinator; the olives make a lovely, fruity aromatic oil. |
8 year old Olea europaea 'Frantoio' - 200 to 220cm tall
only £125.00 |
Too BIG for our courier, but we can deliver with our own transport. Please email us for your personalised delivery charge |
|
| Olea europaea 'Leccino' |
Olea europaea ‘Leccino’ with its open semi-pendulous habit is a popular and widely planted form - it is easy to cultivate and is tolerant of a wide range of conditions. Leccino produces olives that are of high quality and are suitable for both the table and olive oil production. This is a self-sterile form and so should be planted with a good pollinator. |
