national PLANT NETWORK's grower approved selections take the guesswork out of gardening. Black Olive is a tropical evergreen prized for its finely textured branches, small glossy leaves, and naturally sculptural form that lends elegance to landscapes and patios. It thrives in full sun and well-drained soil, showing excellent tolerance to heat, wind, and salt, making it a standout for coastal or urban gardens. In colder zones, it can be grown in a large container and overwintered indoors in a bright sunny room or sunroom, where its compact growth and graceful branching make it an attractive houseplant. Provide bright light, moderate humidity, and even moisture to keep it healthy and lush year round.
