Why Grow Olive Trees in New Zealand?

Olive trees thrive across much of New Zealand, especially in sunny, well-drained positions. Known for their drought tolerance and low maintenance requirements, olives work beautifully as ornamental specimens or hedging, and they reward patient gardeners with healthy, home-grown fruit. As evergreens, they bring year-round structure to gardens large and small, while the subtle silver-green leaves complement almost any landscaping style.

Choosing the Right Olive Variety

Before you buy olive tree online, consider what you want from your olive. Is it tasty table fruit, oil production, or simply a striking feature tree? Our most popular olive varieties include:
