About this plant
Ancient Olive Tree suits outdoor spots with full sun. Its pet safety is not confirmed, so check with your vet if you have pets.
Ancient Olive Tree is a mature olive with a thick, gnarled multi-stem trunk and silver-green canopy, a heat-tolerant centerpiece for Dubai villa gardens.
Ancient Olive Trees are mature specimens of the olive (Olea europaea), native to the Mediterranean. Decades of growth give them thick, twisted and often hollowed trunks with deep bark texture, topped by a canopy of narrow, silver-green leaves. Each tree has its own shape and character.
Olives are well suited to Dubai. They tolerate full sun, intense heat, dry air and some salinity, and once established they need far less water than most garden trees. Excellent drainage is essential, as waterlogged roots are the main cause of failure. Fruiting is usually light in Dubai because winters are too mild for heavy crops, so they are grown mainly as ornamental trees. Large specimens need professional planting and regular deep watering in their first year.
They work well as the centerpiece of a villa garden, courtyard, entrance or large terrace planter. We offer individual specimen trees, each priced by size and character.

Care guide for Dubai homes
How to keep Ancient Olive Tree healthy through the Dubai year.
Light
Full sun. Keep it out of harsh direct afternoon sun in summer.
Watering
Deep watering 2 to 3 times a week in the first summer; every 7 to 10 days once established. Water when the top 2 to 3 cm of soil feels dry, empty the saucer afterwards, and check the soil before you water: AC slows how fast the plant uses water.
Care notes
Soil: very free-draining, sandy or gravelly soil. Feeding: balanced slow-release feed in late winter and early summer. Common mistake: planting in heavy, poorly drained soil or overwatering, which rots the roots. Where it works: villa garden centerpieces, courtyards, entrances and large terrace planters.
AC and air flow
Keep it at least 1 metre from AC vents. Cold air blowing straight onto the leaves dries the edges.
Cleaning the leaves
Dust settles quickly in Dubai homes. Wipe the leaves with a damp cloth every few weeks so they keep taking in light.
Feeding and repotting
Feed once a month from March to October. Repot every 2 years into a pot one size up, or book a Plant Doctor visit and we do it for you.
