Olive Tree (Olea europaea) | Thick Trunk, 1.2–1.5 m, 40–50 cm Girth

This Olive Tree packs a disproportionately thick trunk into a compact 1.2–1.5 m frame — the 40–50 cm girth gives it the gnarled, sculptural character of a much older tree in a size that fits smaller courtyards, entrance planters, and intimate garden corners. Available at AED 2,500, it is the sweet spot between visual maturity and manageable scale.

Key Features

• 40–50 cm trunk girth at just 1.2–1.5 m height — a notably thick-trunked specimen for this compact size
• Gnarled, characterful trunk that delivers the aged olive tree aesthetic without requiring a large planting area
• Silvery-green evergreen canopy that provides year-round interest and soft, filtered light
• Ideal for courtyards, entrance features, and smaller garden spaces where a full-sized olive is too large
• Available at AED 2,500 — a strong trunk-to-price ratio in our olive collection

Why It Works in Dubai

The thick trunk on this compact specimen indicates a well-established root system and years of healthy growth — two factors that make transplanting and establishment in Dubai’s challenging conditions far more reliable. Olea europaea is inherently drought-tolerant, heat-loving, and unfussy about soil quality, and a tree with this level of trunk development is past the vulnerable juvenile stage. It will settle into a new position quickly, tolerate full sun and sandy soil, and require only modest irrigation once its roots take hold in the surrounding ground.

Care Snapshot

Light: full sun; position in an open, bright spot for the best canopy development
Water: low to moderate once established; deep watering every 7–10 days in summer
Soil: well-draining sandy or loamy soil; tolerates alkaline and poor soils without issue
