How to Plant & Grow Sevillano Olive Trees

Sun Requirements 🌞: Full sun for at least 6-8 hours a day is essential for healthy growth and fruit production.
Soil Requirements 🌿: Prefers well-draining, slightly alkaline soil (pH 7.0-8.0) enriched with organic matter to ensure optimal growth and fruit yield.
Spacing 🌳: Space trees 10-15 feet apart to ensure proper air circulation and room for healthy growth.
Mature Size 🌳: The Sevillano Olive Tree typically grows to a mature height of 12-20 feet, making it suitable for both small and large gardens or orchards.

Step-by-Step Planting Instructions

1️⃣ Prepare the Soil 🧑‍🌾: Choose a well-drained location with slightly alkaline soil. Amend it with compost to enhance fertility and drainage.
2️⃣ Dig a Hole 🕳️: Dig a hole at least twice the size of the root ball to provide ample space for root development and establishment.
3️⃣ Position the Plant 🌿: Place the tree in the hole, ensuring the top of the root ball is level with the surrounding soil surface.
4️⃣ Backfill & Water 💧: Fill the hole with soil, pressing gently to remove air pockets, and water thoroughly to settle the roots in place.
5️⃣ Mulch Around the Base 🌱: Apply mulch or Weed Pro Weed Mats to retain moisture and keep weeds from competing for nutrients.

Ongoing Care & Maintenance

Watering 💧: Keep the soil consistently moist during the first year. Once established, water deeply once a week, especially during dry periods.
Pruning ✂️: Prune the tree annually to remove dead or damaged wood and shape it for better airflow and fruit production.
Fertilizing 🍃: Apply Nutra-Pro 1st Year Fertilizer Paks to promote strong root growth. For mature trees, apply a balanced fertilizer in early spring to encourage fruit production.
