Growing from Seed

Mission Olive tree seeds

13 years ago

Does anyone know of where I could obtain some Mission
Olive seeds. I would love to try to grow one in my greenhouse, but the trees are extremely expensive and I
would enjoy the challenge of growing them from seed. I'm
guessing that attempting to grow one from an olive from a
jar wouldn't work. If anyone has any experience and/or knows where I can get seeds, I would appreciate it. Thanks.

Since the Mission Olive is a cultivar, it is unlikely that it will come true from seed. To get the genuine article you'd need a certified cutting or plant.
