Olive Trees

In many ways a symbol of the Mediterranean, the olive tree is reminiscent of hot sun, baked soil and delicious cuisine.

Ancient Greek mythology refers to a competition between the Goddess Athena and the God Poseidon to win the favour of the people of Attica (an area of ancient Greece). The gods on Mount Olympus declared Athena’s gift of an olive tree (the symbol of peace and life) better than Poseidon’s gift of a horse (a symbol of war) and so Athena became the patron of Attica and named the main city Athens. To this day, Athens is known as the city of the olive tree.

The olive tree, with its delicately pointed leaves and textured bark, provides an attractive focal point to any garden or patio setting; working well with both Mediterranean and mixed style planting.
