Description
A magnificent mature olive tree with a beautifully weathered trunk, soft silver-green foliage, and a taller, more commanding presence in the garden. Full of character and timeless appeal, these specimens bring instant structure, atmosphere, and a sense of permanence to a space.
With their sculptural trunks and airy evergreen heads, olive trees have a calm, architectural quality that suits both classic and contemporary gardens.

Growing conditions
Olive trees thrive in a sunny, well-drained, sheltered position. In Ireland, they are happiest where they can enjoy as much warmth and light as possible, with protection from harsh winter exposure and waterlogged soil.
What makes this one special
These trees combine the age and character of a mature trunk with a taller overall height, making them especially impactful in the garden. As with all specimen olives, there will be natural variation in trunk shape, canopy form, and branching, which is part of what makes each tree so special.
Caragh’s Garden Notebook
A mature olive tree is less about uniformity and more about presence. These are trees with real personality — each one shaped by time, with its own movement, texture, and balance. Plant where the trunk can really be appreciated, and underplant simply so the form of the tree remains the star.
