Semi Fruitless Olive trees, known botanically as Olea europaea ‘Wilsonii’ are very similar to the Manzanillo trees and Mission Olive trees, but Olea europaea ‘Wilsonii’ bears less fruit.
Our Semi Fruitless Olive trees have grown from a small sapling to a robust full size tree in the hot and dry inland climate, making them highly adaptable to drought tolerant landscapes in Arizona, Nevada, and California.
Drought tolerant and medium-sized, the Wilson Fruitless Olive tree is perfectly suited for a Mediterranean Southwest garden style. You’ll want to make this Semi Fruitless Olive a focal point in your landscape with landscape lighting to compliment its multi-trunk structure and gray/green and silver foliage.
Easy to care for, the Wilson Semi Fruitless Olive trees crave full sun and can tolerate poor, rocky, shallow soils, which makes them ideal for many different landscape types. Once established, they require very little water and are very resilient to changing climatic conditions. Wilson Semi Fruitless Olive trees also have a widespread canopy, making them great trees for shade or as a silhouette against structures, bringing shade to sun-facing rooms. Growing to 25 feet tall and wide, its open form and gray/green narrow leaves and bumpy trunk offers beautiful character and individuality.
Olea europaea ‘Wilsonii’ is best placed in Sunset Garden zones 8, 9, 11-24, H1 and H2.
