Ascolana Olive Tree

Ascolana Olive Tree

  • Country of Origin: Italy
  • Zones: 8-9
  • Looks: A vigorous tree with a very dense crown of an upward shape and slightly drooping fruiting branches.

Olive trees come potted and are self-fruitful (produce both male and female flowers on the same tree). Even if a pollenizer is not required, mixing varieties can help increase yields. See suggested trees under "Pollenizer" for each variety. Evergreen, long-lived, beautiful ornamental with soft gray-green foliage. The ideal time of year to plant olives is in early fall. Alternately early spring is another good time of year to plant olives. The slow growing trees reach about 25’–30’ in maturity. Depending on the variety, olives should begin to produce fruit 2-4 years after planting.

Thrives in hot summers but will tolerate coastal regions too. Winter temperatures shouldn’t drop below 22°–25°F (green fruit will be damaged at 32°F), but average winter temperatures above 50°F will inhibit fruiting. Drought resistant trees grow in alkaline soils with little fertilization. Plan your planting location to provide good drainage.

The potted trees will be about 18"-36” tall from the bottom of the pot to the top of the tree, approximately 1/8”–1/4” diameter (measured just above the graft).

We guarantee that potted trees will arrive in good viable condition. If they do not, contact Customer Service immediately. As they are evergreen and thus not dormant, they are not subject to the Bare-Root Limited Replacement Guarantee.

Useful Information

Guarantee

We guarantee the perishable items we sell to be in good, viable condition when we sell them. Perishable items include, but are not limited to, garlic bulbs, flower bulbs, seed potatoes, onion sets & transplants, potted or bare root trees, vegetable crowns, etc. If your perishable item arrives in substandard condition, take photographs and please contact us within 3 days of the purchase date (or delivery date) and we will provide you with a refund of the purchase price (excluding shipping costs), or a replacement. Accordingly, we urge you to open any boxes marked as ""Perishable"" immediately upon receiving them and inspect the shipment thoroughly (do not crack open heads of garlic, we do not accept claims on cracked garlic). Because some perishable items can deteriorate very quickly, we cannot accept any claims beyond the 3-day time frame as it becomes too difficult to determine if these items were delivered in substandard condition, or if they turned into such substandard condition because of having been improperly cared for or stored once delivered.

Professional service and healthy looking plants

I ordered three separate olive cultivars, and they arrived on time with lush and vibrant leaves, healthy and erect. I will definitely consult this website and order from it any trees or plants that I need in future. I highly recommend this seller.

I love these trees

I ordered 12 trees and was shocked to the actual size and health of these trees...I'll order more next year since the type I wanted was sold out by the time I placed this order

As usual packaged very well in its own pot

I have ordered every variety of olive Peaceful Valley stocks that grows in Southern CA. They come as short straight rooted stems so they fit in the shipping box. But almost everyone has produced olives in its first Spring.

Good looking tree

I have only just received this tree and planted it, so I can only comment on the plant that I received. The tree itself was very healthy; it was packaged securely with three different upright supports to prevent damage... and it arrived in beautiful condition.

Shipping was quick - I immediately put it in the ground, so time will tell.
