A mature olive trained and pruned into a standard form - a clear trunk topped with a rounded lollipop canopy. Suited to formal garden settings, flanking a front door, or as a feature in a pot or paved courtyard. The standard form is the result of years of training and is best maintained with regular light pruning to preserve the shape. Olives are among the most naturally suited trees for Perth's climate - hot dry summers, mild winters, and well-drained sandy soils closely mirror the Mediterranean conditions they evolved in. Once established they are genuinely drought tolerant, though good watering through summer improves fruit size and quality. Full sun is non-negotiable. Fertilise with a low-phosphorus fertiliser in spring. Prune lightly after harvest to open up the canopy and encourage the following season's fruit. A note on fruit: raw olives are not edible straight from the tree - all table olives need curing first.
