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.




Green Is Where I Grow!
Osmanthus Tea Olive Will Grow in Hardiness Zones 8-11
This shrub is easy to care for because it loves the sun and does not require pruning or fertilization to thrive! Sunlight will help increase flower production which will also increase fragrance released in the air. These tiny, pale flowers sit on the underside of Tea Olive leaves — offering a discrete reward!

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!
