Your tree, standing at a graceful 90cm tall in its 19cm pot, is a quintessential Mediterranean feature that adds a touch of timeless class and sophistication to any space.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e🌿 \u003cb\u003eFoliage, Form, and Appearance\u003c\/b\u003e\n\n\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"2\"\u003eThe Olive Tree is an \u003cb\u003eevergreen\u003c\/b\u003e plant, providing beautiful foliage throughout all seasons. The tree's most striking feature is its \u003cb\u003echaracteristic woody trunk\u003c\/b\u003e supporting a \u003cb\u003ecompact, ball-shaped crown\u003c\/b\u003e.

The \"on stem\" form is specifically maintained to keep the tree contained and decorative. While the tree's overall height is set by the trunk, the crown can be easily kept in its compact, ball-shaped form through regular pruning, allowing it to remain a manageable and elegant focal point for many years.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e🌸 \u003cb\u003eFlowering and Fruiting\u003c\/b\u003e\n\n\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"6\"\u003eIn \u003cb\u003espring\u003c\/b\u003e, the Olive Tree may produce small, delicate, white \u003cb\u003eflowers\u003c\/b\u003e that appear in clusters. These blooms are subtle but possess a \u003cb\u003esubtle fragrance\u003c\/b\u003e. Following flowering, the tree may produce \u003cb\u003eolives (fruit)\u003c\/b\u003e in the autumn.
