What Type Of Container 
Do  You Need For Indoor 
Olive  Tree?
The olive tree needs good drainage soil, 
thus,  using a pot that is lightweight and 
has the  big drainage holes can be 
considered for  olive tree plantation. You will 
have to use  cactus soil. Mix the perlite 
and bark chips and  gravel in the soil.
Now that you have got the perfect soil 
mix  and the lightweight container the 
next  question is, where to place this 
pot?

You should place this pot in a place with a 
lot  of sunlight, watering the plant when 
the soil  gets visibly dry enough. Keep in 
mind that  when the temperature starts 
falling below 25  degrees in your 
neighborhood you should  move the plant 
indoors.
Once you take this pot inside make sure 
to  place the tree in an East west facing 
window  to ensure enough sunlight for the 
olive.
At least 6-8 hours of sunlight is a  must  
through this window and if you do not 
have a  such window you will have to 
create it with  the help of an artificial 
source of light.
If the sunlight is not enough the tree will 7
start  to shed leaves which is not a good 
sign for  the survival of the olive tree.

OCliaver terees never produce fruit on the 
same  stem again.
Early spring is the best time to prune  
them, removing the fruit-bearing 
shoots,  and the newly formed ones 
are left  behind. When you see suckers 
and water  shoots, remove them.
Keep an eye out for scale insects on 
the  branches and twigs, and if you 
see any,  spray insecticidal soap on 
them.
