PLANT PROFILE

Olea europaea 'Bambalina', known as the Compact Olive Tree, is a tidy, evergreen variety prized for its classic Mediterranean foliage and compact size. Growing to just 2–3 meters tall and wide, it’s perfect for container planting, small gardens, courtyards, and structured borders.

This olive features narrow grey-green leaves, silver-grey bark, and produces inconspicuous white flowers in spring. Though not typically grown for fruit, its bushy, rounded habit responds well to pruning and shaping, maintaining a clean and elegant silhouette in both formal and informal landscapes.

Thriving in full sun, Olea 'Bambalina' is moderately drought-tolerant once established and adapts to a variety of well-drained soils, including sandy and loamy types. Low-maintenance and versatile, it’s an ideal choice for adding Mediterranean charm with minimal care in coastal, urban, and Mediterranean-inspired gardens.

How to Plant Olea Europaea 'Bambalina'

  1. Select a sunny location with well-drained soil.

  3. Place the tree in the hole, ensuring the top of the root ball is level with the surrounding soil.
