Merricks range

Compact mature olive tree.

20 – 30 years old.

Our Merricks range boasts the scale and structure of a mature tree, while still lightweight enough to move through elevators, stairs, balconies and hallways (with the help of a few good mates). 

Sourced from the quaint town of Merricks on the Mornington Peninsula, these beautifully established olive trees were set to be cleared to make way for a new vineyard. So one afternoon, Michael received a phone call from the head viticulturist. He was having an olive tree party and we were invited.

Perfect for: 

  • Pots

  • Balconies

  • Indoors (with adequate lighting)

  • Around a pool

Got questions? We’ve got answers.

I’m looking to create table olives or olive oil with my tree. Will that work?

Yes, our Merricks range fruits if placed in the right conditions. This is suitable for table olives or olive oil.

I’m looking for a particular shape to match my house design, can I come and pick it?

Absolutely. We encourage you to come and wander through our olive grove to select your perfect tree — a living piece of art.  

Do I need a machine to lift trees in the Merricks range?

Most of the time, our Merricks range can be manhandled by you and a few mates (usually in exchange for a slab of beer, but that’s none of our business).

How heavy are your Merricks range trees?

These trees range from 80kg – 150kg.

I really want an old and mature olive tree, but I don’t have the space. Is this a good fit?

Yes. Our Merricks range is the smallest of our mature olive trees — perfect for pots, well-lit indoor spaces and balconies.
