Olea europaea, commonly known as the Olive tree, is a popular indoor plant prized for its elegant appearance and symbolic significance. Olea europaea features narrow, elongated, silver-gray leaves that are leathery and evergreen. The leaves are typically arranged opposite each other along the stems, creating a dense and lush canopy.
Light: Olea europaea thrives in bright, indirect sunlight. Place it near a window where it can receive plenty of filtered sunlight throughout the day. It can tolerate lower light conditions but may not grow as vigorously or produce as many leaves.
Watering: Allow the top inch of the soil to dry out between waterings, and then water thoroughly until water drains from the bottom of the pot. Avoid overwatering, as this can lead to root rot. Reduce watering frequency during the winter months when growth slows down.
Fertilization: Feed Olea europaea with a balanced liquid fertilizer diluted to half strength every 4-6 weeks during the growing season (spring and summer). Avoid fertilizing during the winter months when growth slows down.
Pruning: Prune Olea europaea regularly to maintain its shape and size, as well as to remove any dead or diseased branches. You can also prune back excessive growth to encourage branching and denser foliage.
