Known for producing abundant harvests of flavorful olives and quality oil, this Tuscany-origin variety thrives in compact spaces and adapts beautifully to California's climate. When you buy Maurino olive trees online, you're investing in a California-grown specimen ready to flourish in your landscape or container garden.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eLandscaping Uses\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis olive variety excels in hedgerows, windswept locations, and confined spaces where other trees struggle. Plant it in full sun areas with well-draining soil, and pair it with pollinating varieties like Leccino, Pendolino, or Frantoio to maximize fruit production. Container growers will appreciate its manageable size indoors and on patios, while in-ground planting accommodates its larger mature form.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHeight: 20–30 feet (in-ground); smaller with container cultivation and pruning\u003cbr\u003eWidth: Compact, upright growth habit\u003cbr\u003eGrowth Rate: Moderate\u003cbr\u003eSun: Full sun (6–8 hours daily)\u003cbr\u003eWater: Regular when young; established trees need monthly deep watering or weekly light watering\u003cbr\u003eSoil: Well-draining, amended with organic matter\u003cbr\u003eUSDA Zones: Mediterranean and warm climates\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy Homeowners Love It\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• Produces medium-sized, high-quality olives perfect for harvest and oil pressing\u003cbr\u003e• Grows reliably in tight spaces and windy conditions where space is limited\u003cbr\u003e• California-grown nursery stock arrives healthy and ready for immediate planting\u003cbr\u003e• Flexible growing options work equally well in garden beds or on patios in pots\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePlanting \u0026amp; Care\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlant your Maurino in full sun with well-draining soil, digging a hole twice as wide as the root ball for outdoor placement. Water young trees daily during warm seasons, checking soil moisture with your finger—water when the top two inches feel dry. For container planting, use a pot only 1–2 inches larger than the nursery pot with adequate drainage holes and quality potting soil. Minimal pruning is needed during the first few years, though indoor specimens benefit from selective pruning to shape growth and manage fruit production. Once established, reduce watering to monthly deep soakings or light weekly applications.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Florida Plant Nursery","offers":[{"title":"1-2 ft.","offer_id":45814351462586,"sku":"12406","price":266.92,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0757\/3520\/4026\/files\/maurino-olive-tree-ca_df826dd4-1ecf-4418-988a-97edcca7b927.jpg?v=1777510111","url":"https:\/\/floridaplantnursery.com\/products\/maurino-olive-tree-ca","provider":"Florida Plant Nursery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
