Specialist Delivery, On Us
Specialist Delivery, On Us
We offer complimentary, specialist delivery across most of mainland England and Wales on all olive tree orders. Each delivery is carefully arranged to ensure your tree arrives in excellent condition, whether it’s a single statement piece or a full grove.
You can typically expect delivery within 14 to 21 working days, though timelines may vary depending on tree size, quantity, and your location—so we kindly ask that you allow up to 30 days.
Trees under 2 meters in height are delivered via the pallet network, curbside. Those over 2 meters and in pots under 120L are delivered using our private van service for more direct and careful handling. Mature or heavier trees may be delivered via lorry; in these cases, we ask that access details are provided at checkout or by email shortly after placing your order to ensure smooth delivery.
Please note that we recommend not booking any gardeners or contractors until your tree has been delivered and received.
Some remote regions, including the northernmost and southernmost parts of England and the westernmost areas of Wales, may fall outside our standard delivery routes—if this applies to you, we’re happy to provide a custom quote.
For full information, please view our delivery policy. T&Cs apply.
Natural Variation & Availability
Natural Variation & Availability
We take great pride in offering hand-selected olive trees, each one chosen for its unique form, character, and story. These are living, evolving trees—shaped by nature, time, and the environment in which they’ve grown. As such, natural variation is not only expected, but embraced.
No two trees will ever be exactly alike, and we believe that’s part of their lasting charm. While the images shown are a close representation of the style and size you can expect, factors such as seasonality, maturity, and growing conditions may affect the tree’s appearance, foliage density, or shape at the time of delivery. Minor differences in height or spread are entirely normal.
Once your order is placed, we begin sourcing your tree from one of our trusted partner nurseries—most often in Tuscany. For mature olive trees, you may request a pre-shipment inspection photo, which we’ll send once the most suitable tree has been selected. Please note that inspection photos are only available for mature trees and not for younger or bulk-order trees, where reviewing each individual specimen isn't feasible.
For trees delivered with pots, variations in pot material may occur depending on the size of the tree's root system.

Full of quiet character and compact elegance, our Low Trunk Semi-Mature Olive Trees (Olea europaea) stand at 130–150cm and are pot-grown in Tuscany for effortless integration into UK gardens. With a broader, bushier silhouette and a shortened trunk height, this form is ideal for those seeking a more grounded, sculptural presence in their outdoor space.
These semi-mature trees are carefully cultivated to offer instant impact while retaining a soft, natural shape. Their low trunk form is particularly suited to container planting, small gardens, or nestling into borders where height isn’t required, but structure and texture are. The evergreen silver-green foliage adds a Mediterranean touch all year round, and the tree will only grow more beautiful as it matures.
Plant in a sunny, sheltered position in free-draining soil or a generously sized pot. With minimal upkeep, these trees thrive in a range of UK microclimates and bring lasting presence, even in compact spaces.
Naturally sculptural. Modestly sized. Timeless by nature.
