Description
This Olive Tree listing offers two distinct height-and-girth combinations — a compact 1.5–2.0 m specimen with a substantial 30–35 cm girth, and a taller 2.5–3.0 m tree with a more slender 15–20 cm trunk. Each delivers a different character: the shorter option has the gnarled, mature aesthetic of a much older tree, while the taller option provides more immediate height and canopy coverage. Both bring the iconic silvery-green Mediterranean silhouette to your Dubai garden.
Key Features
- Two options: 1.5–2.0 m / 30–35 cm girth (AED 2,500) and 2.5–3.0 m / 15–20 cm girth (AED 2,250)
- Gnarled, sculptural trunks and silvery-green evergreen foliage — the unmistakable olive tree character
- The shorter specimen’s thick girth gives it the aged, weathered look that makes olive trees so prized
- Drought-tolerant and low-maintenance once established — among the most reliable trees for UAE landscapes
- Competitively priced from AED 2,250 — a strong mid-range option in our olive tree collection
Why It Works in Dubai
Olea europaea is a Mediterranean native built for heat, drought, and poor soils — conditions that map closely onto Dubai’s climate. The species handles full sun without stress, tolerates sandy and alkaline soils, and requires surprisingly little water once its root system is established. Olive trees are also remarkably wind-resistant and maintain their evergreen canopy through the hottest months. Both specimens in this listing are well past the delicate juvenile stage and will establish quickly in their new position, growing steadily with minimal intervention.
Care Snapshot
Light: full sun; performs best in open, unshaded positions
Water: low to moderate once established; deep watering every 7–10 days in summer, minimal in winter
Soil: well-draining sandy or loamy soil; tolerates alkaline and poor soils exceptionally well
