Care Instructions:
- Planting Location: Choose a sunny spot with well-draining soil to ensure your olive tree thrives. Olive trees love the sun and need at least 6 hours of direct sunlight daily.
- Watering: While olive trees are drought-tolerant, they do appreciate regular watering during their first year to establish strong roots. Water deeply once or twice a week, allowing the soil to dry out between waterings.
- Pruning: Prune your tree in late winter or early spring to maintain its shape and encourage new growth. Remove any dead or damaged branches to keep the tree healthy and vibrant.
- Feeding & Fertilizers: For optimal growth, feed your ancient olive tree twice a year with a balanced fertilizer rich in nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium. In early spring, use a slow-release fertilizer to support new growth. In late summer, apply a high-potassium feed to enhance fruit production and prepare the tree for winter.
Additional Tips:
- Mulching: Apply a layer of organic mulch around the base of the tree to retain moisture, suppress weeds, and regulate soil temperature.
- Winter Protection: Although hardy, young olive trees may need protection from severe frost. Wrap the trunk with horticultural fleece or cover the base with straw during particularly cold spells.
