Caring for the Arbequina Olive Tree is relatively simple, making it a great choice for gardeners of all skill levels. It thrives in bright, direct sunlight—preferably 6+ hours a day—and can be grown indoors near a sunny window or outdoors in a sunny spot. The tree prefers well-drained soil and needs watering when the top few inches are dry, but is drought-tolerant once established. Ideal for USDA Hardiness Zones 8-11, the Arbequina Olive Tree can also be grown in cooler climates by bringing it indoors when temperatures drop below 20°F (-6°C).
Not only is the Arbequina Olive Tree known for its ornamental beauty, but it can also bear small, flavorful olives that are perfect for home cooking, oil-making, or simply as a savory treat. With its compact size and graceful, easy-to-care-for nature, this olive tree is perfect for patios, balconies, or indoor spaces.
