Natural Form Olive Tree – Rustic Mediterranean Character
This Natural Form Olive Tree celebrates the olive in its most relaxed and organic expression. Rather than tight topiary shaping, this specimen retains a looser, more architectural structure — echoing the wild olive landscapes of the Mediterranean. The wild olive is incredibly slow growing, so this tree will be much older than it looks. Approximately 100 years old. An absolute beauty. Please note depending on your location this olive will incur further delivery charges in addition to the £50/£65 charged at checkout -do not purchase without discussing with myself ANTONIA 07766730893
