Easy Care Tips:
Not a green thumb? No worries. Olive Trees are resilient and rewarding with just a little care.
- Sunlight: Loves full sun; place outdoors in warmer months or near a sunny window indoors.
- Water: Let soil dry slightly between waterings - avoid soggy roots.
- Soil & Drainage: Needs well-draining soil and ensure proper drainage for healthy roots.
- Pruning: Light pruning encourages shape and healthy growth.
- Winter Care: Bring indoors if temps drop below 20°F (Zone 8 and colder).
What’s Not Included (But Helpful):
You’ll also need a few common items not included in the kit - such as:
- An additional bag of potting soil (for indoor planting)
- A saucer tray to catch excess water (for indoor trees)
- 1–2 bags of mulch (for outdoor planting)
