Osmanthus Tea Olive

Osmanthus Tea Olive is an evergreen shrub that does incredibly well with full sun exposure! Tiny, cream-colored flowers sit on the underside of Tea Olive foliage and release an enlightening aroma — comparable to sipping Southern Sweet Tea on a hot Summer's day! Homeowners looking to fill space in the yard will be thrilled with the growth pattern of this shrub — a wide frame with compact growth will fill large gaps in the landscape in no time! Osmanthus Tea Olive grows as tall as it does wide, creating a symmetrical wall of flushing, lime-green foliage. We enjoy seeing this plant perched in mulch beds, alongside patios, lining front walkways, or used as a fragrant focal point.

Fragrant Flowers that Smell of Southern Sweet-Tea!

With its upright oval, columnar growth habit the sweet Osmanthus is ideal as a fragrant specimen plant, privacy hedge, or can be trained to grow as a small tree. The Tea Olive Tree should be placed where its delightful fragrance can be enjoyed. We enjoy seeing it as a border hedge in mulch beds or small gardens. The lush, green foliage of the Tea Olive plant has pale undersides and is accompanied by a multitude of sweet smelling white flowers that bloom in October and last until early spring.

  • Tea Olive Prefers Full Sun Exposure Throughout the Day With Partial Shade
  • Requires Heavy Watering for First Few Weeks After Planting; Less Watering Once Roots Establish
  • Grows Best in Organically Rich, Well-Drained Soil With a Neutral to Acidic pH — Ideally Soil Should be Evenly Moist but Not Soggy
  • Fertilize With Slow-Release Pellets During Late Winter/Early Spring for Optimal Flowering in Summer-Autumn Months
  • Fragrant Flowers Will Attract Butterflies With No Additional Maintenance Required!
