Why choose Arbequina?
Arbequina is one of our absolute favourites – and for good reason:
- Early flowering: Arbequina trees bloom earlier than other olive varieties, which means the fruit has a longer season to ripen on the branch. This makes them perfectly suited to the UK’s shorter summers.
- Self-fertile: You won’t need another olive tree for pollination – Arbequina trees are completely self-fertile, producing fruit even when grown alone.
- Versatile planting: Plant directly into the ground in autumn, while the soil still holds warmth, or in spring, when the growing season begins. Alternatively, keep your tree in a large pot to add instant Mediterranean style to patios and terraces.
We recommend pairing your tree with one of our extra-large Italian garden pots – handmade in Italy and available in a range of beautiful finishes – the perfect partner for this majestic specimen.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do Arbequina olive trees produce fruit in the UK?
Yes. Arbequina is one of the best olive varieties for the UK as it flowers earlier than most, giving fruit more time to ripen during our shorter summers.
Do I need more than one Arbequina tree for pollination?
No – Arbequina olive trees are completely self-fertile, meaning a single tree will flower and set fruit without needing a pollination partner.
Can I keep this olive tree in a pot?
Absolutely. Arbequina adapts well to container growing, provided you use a large, well-draining pot. Our extra-large Italian pots are the perfect choice for this tree.
When is the best time to plant my Arbequina olive tree?
We recommend planting in autumn, when the soil is still warm, or in spring, when the growing season begins.
How will my tree be delivered?
