In the UK, they perform particularly well against a south-facing wall or in a large container that can be moved under cover during cold winter periods. Well-drained soil is essential, as olives dislike sitting in wet or waterlogged conditions. Water regularly during the growing season, allowing the soil or compost to dry out slightly between waterings. Feed with a balanced fertiliser through spring and summer to encourage healthy growth. Light pruning in late spring helps to maintain a tidy, compact form.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eNotes:\u003c\/b\u003e This Mini Olive Bush is supplied in a nursery pot, making it easy to pot on into a larger decorative container or plant directly into a prepared garden border when conditions allow.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Accelopack","offers":[{"title":"Nursery Pot","offer_id":56175438004609,"sku":"COL-15CM-MIN-OLIV-BUSX1","price":29.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Green Ceramic Pot","offer_id":56175438037377,"sku":"COL-15CM-MIN-OLI-BUSX1-CP1","price":49.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Metal Pail with handle","offer_id":56175438070145,"sku":"COL-15CM-MIN-OLI-BUSX1-CP2","price":34.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0371\/0854\/7722\/files\/file_a9409b77-225a-4e5e-9e5a-c26d3376483b.png?v=1787666091","url":"https:\/\/www.hopeplants.com\/products\/col-15cm-min-oliv-bus","provider":"Hope Plants Ltd","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
