Why this product works
Product details & specifications
The Nearly Natural Extra Large Olive Tree with Olives 280cm is an extraordinary indoor botanical installation — the characterful twisted trunk, silver-green foliage, and visible olives of the Mediterranean olive tree at 280 centimetres. This is the olive tree at a scale rarely achieved in living form — the centuries-old twisted trunk character of a mature olive specimen replicated at a height that creates a genuine botanical landscape within an interior environment. The "Nearly Natural" designation reflects the exceptional botanical accuracy of this specimen — calibrated trunk character, branch structure, foliage density, and visible olive clusters replicating a mature, established olive at full grand-scale height. Contact Designer Plants on 1800 617 341 before ordering to confirm dimensions, lead times, and installation requirements. Constructed from LDPE with integrated RealTex technology.
At 280 centimetres, the Extra Large Olive Tree is more than a specimen — it is a statement of provenance, scale, and considered design. The centuries-old twisted trunk character at a height that creates a botanical landscape within the room.
