    The Olive Tree (Olea europaea) is a small evergreen tree native to the Mediterranean region, known for its silvery-green leaves and gnarled trunks. It has been cultivated for thousands of years, primarily for its edible fruits, known as olives, and the oil extracted from them.

    Key Characteristics:

    • Foliage: The leaves are lance-shaped, 2-3 inches long (5-7 cm), with a silvery underside, giving the tree its distinctive appearance.

    • Flowers: Small, fragrant, creamy-white flowers appear in late spring to early summer, clustered in the axils of the leaves.

    • Fruit: The fruits start green and gradually darken to purple or black when ripe. They are harvested for eating or for producing olive oil.

    • Size: Olive trees can grow up to 20-30 feet (6-9 meters) tall and wide.

    Cultivation and Care:

    • Light: Olive trees prefer full sun for best growth and fruit production.

    • Soil: They thrive in well-draining soil, moderately acidic or alkaline.

    • Watering: Olive trees are drought-tolerant once established but require regular watering during the growing season.

    • Temperature: They are hardy to approximately 25°F (-3.9°C), suitable for USDA hardiness zones 9 to 11.

    • Pruning: Regular pruning helps maintain shape and encourages healthy growth.
