The olive plant said be a symbol of peace, prosperity, wisdom, and longevity in many cultures. It’s scientifically known as Olea europaea, is a slow-growing, broadleaf evergreen tree or shrub native to the Mediterranean, Africa, and China. It is renowned for its gnarled trunk, silvery-green leaves, and its fruit, which is used to produce olive oil and is also consumed. The plant thrives in full sun and well-draining soil, becoming drought-tolerant once established.
 
In the summer, the plant produces small, fragrant, creamy-white flowers. These flowers are followed by oval, green drupes (olives) that ripen to a blackish-purple color. Remarkably, this plant can live for thousands of years.
