This Ancient Gnarled Olive Tree (Olea europaea) stands 250–300cm tall with a 140–160cm trunk girth and an estimated age of 200–400+ years, supplied in a 400–600L container.
Our ancient gnarled olive trees 250–300 cm are the largest, oldest and most breathtaking specimens legally available for private gardens in the UK. With a trunk circumference of 140–160 cm (that’s over 1.5 metres around), these 200–400+ year-old titans have trunks thicker than oak trees and bark that looks like it was carved by centuries of Mediterranean wind and sun.
To explore more heritage specimens, browse our plants and trees range or the full olive tree collection at Palm and Olive, and read our Comprehensive Guide to Olive Tree Care for the full seasonal calendar.
Standing an awe-inspiring 2.5–3.0 metres tall (including pot), a single tree creates instant privacy, casts dramatic shade and turns any estate, roof terrace, driveway or country garden into a world-class landscape. These are the exact trees used by top garden designers, luxury hotels and celebrity estates when only the absolute best will do.
