Olive 'Saint Helena' - Large

The St Helena Olive Tree is a hardy, heat-tolerant variety with a rich history tied to Queensland. In the 1800s, olive trees were planted at the St Helena Island penal colony in Moreton Bay as part of efforts to make the settlement self-sufficient. Despite the harsh subtropical conditions, these trees flourished, producing fruit and oil for the inmates and staff. Their success in this environment highlights their resilience and suitability for Queensland's warm climate, making them an excellent choice for gardeners and growers in the region. Supplied in a 200mm pot.
