Give the Gift of an Olive Tree A living olive tree is a meaningful way to mark life’s important moments—offered in a form that feels both natural and enduring. Long associated with peace, reconciliation, and goodwill, it is a gift that carries its sentiment quietly and with intention. Presented in a rustic wooden cachepot, this version offers a warm, grounded alternative—well suited to a wide range of homes and occasions. Your Message, Thoughtfully Presented Nearly every tree we send carries a personal message. Your words are prepared on a custom gift tag and tied to the tree, creating a presentation that feels considered and complete upon arrival. Each gift includes a second card, placed discreetly behind the front tag, with guidance on care upon arrival, planting, and even keeping your tree small through simple bonsai principles. If a message is not included at the time of order, we will follow up to ensure your gift arrives exactly as intended. Olive Trees Propagated in California These live olive trees are propagated in Northern California from widely favored varieties. Each tree is first established in a 3" nursery pot, then placed in a square pinewood cachepot and finished with sphagnum moss. The wood is lightly stained and fitted with additional drainage, offering a simple, versatile presentation that complements a range of settings—from farmhouse to modern interiors. Trees typically range from 12" to 16" in height depending on the variety and time of year, with some reaching up to 18". Each tree is selected individually to ensure it is healthy, well-balanced, and suitable for gift giving. A Natural Choice for Many Occasions This format is often chosen for its versatility—equally at home in a kitchen, on a table, or as part of a gathering. It is well suited to occasions that call for a thoughtful and lasting gesture, without the formality of a more polished presentation. If you are planning for multiple recipients or a special event, we are happy to assist. Shipping & Order Process Trees ship directly from our nursery partner via UPS Ground.
