Dwarf Olive | Olea europaea 'Little Ollie' 5g

The Olea europaea ‘Little Ollie’ is a dwarf, non-fruiting olive shrub with narrow gray-green leaves and a naturally dense, rounded growth habit that gives it a refined, evergreen look. This compact variety typically reaches 4–6 feet tall and 4–6 feet wide, making it an excellent choice for hedges, borders, containers, or topiary forms. It thrives in full sun and requires minimal water once established, making it highly suited for drought-tolerant and Mediterranean-style gardens. Unlike fruiting olive trees, ‘Little Ollie’ does not produce messy olives, offering a clean and low-maintenance option for landscapes. It may produce small, creamy-white blooms in spring, though they are subtle and not the main ornamental feature. With its versatility, year-round foliage, and easy care, this shrub adds timeless structure and beauty to any outdoor space. USDA Hardiness Zones 8–11.
