Olea europaea Manzanillo
Olea europaea Manzanillo, the Manzanillo Olive, is a productive and ornamental olive tree grown for its silvery-grey foliage and abundant fruit production. Excellent as a feature tree, avenue specimen, and edible productive element in formal landscape design.
Specifier notes. Carries the visual weight of a feature tree in residential and commercial landscapes. Repeats cleanly along avenues and driveways without losing uniformity at scale.
Site & establishment. Suits Mediterranean conditions with hot dry summers and free-draining soils.
How we supply it. Productive — supplies edible fruit or foliage where amenity overlaps with function. Carries a productive role in addition to its visual one.
Cape Nursery production. All Cape Nursery stock is grown 7 km from the Pacific Ocean, hardened to coastal sun and wind from propagation rather than acclimatised at point of sale. Specimens leave us biosecurity-traceable, and root-checked. National delivery is available; collection from Ewingsdale is welcomed Mon–Thu 7:30am–4pm.
