The most famous and captivating tree from the Old World! The oil and fruits are still renowned. In our country, we grow olives in pots, and they can tolerate some frost. The evergreen shrubs have glossy, narrow, dark green leaves with a light grey underside. After 2-5 years, they will flower; and indeed: the green olives, which ripen to black, develop from the white flower clusters.
