Artificial Olive Tree — 5 ft, Rubber Silk Foliage with Black Pot

Short answer: a faux olive tree at a single height — 5 ft — in a black pot, with rubber silk foliage on a metal wire branch structure. The materials are smell-free, making this a fit for enclosed indoor spaces, offices and bedrooms included.

Olive brings a settled, Mediterranean read to a room without much effort, and this tree is pitched specifically at enclosed indoor spaces. At 5 ft, it is a one-decision purchase: a single height, a black pot, nothing else to choose.

The foliage is rubber silk fabric, with detailed texture and rich colour, built on branches wired with metal so you can bend and reshape them by hand. The materials are described as smell-free — a genuine comfort for a bedroom or office setting.

Cost, year five	Nothing further	Frequently replaced after a failed winter or two
Maintenance	A damp cloth occasionally	Watering, feeding, repotting, pest control

Some people would rather have a plant that is doing something — growing, however marginally — than one that only looks the part. If that is the point of owning one for you, a live olive is the route to it.

What arrives in the box, and what do I have to do to it?

This tree ships compressed, with the wired branches folded in against the trunk, and needs opening out by hand before it looks like the photographs. Budget around fifteen minutes at this height — the wire construction makes the branches genuinely reshapeable, so it is worth taking the extra few minutes to set the angle you want rather than leaving them as they arrive.

Inspect the pot and the trunk before you accept delivery, and photograph anything damaged before you unpack further — shipping damage such as cracked bases or crushed pots is the most common issue in this category.

Who should not buy this?

• Direct outdoor sun. This tree is built for enclosed indoor rooms; keep it out of direct sun.
• Buyers who need documented fire-test paperwork. We have not tested these materials against a named fire-safety standard, so don't rely on this listing for a commercial fit-out.

Common questions

What material are the leaves on this olive tree made from?

Rubber silk fabric, with detailed textures and rich colour — a genuine material name rather than vague "lifelike" language, and one that tends to hold colour and texture better than plain PE. The branches are built around metal wire, so you can bend and reshape them by hand once the tree is unpacked.

Is this olive tree safe to put in a bedroom?

It is marketed specifically for enclosed indoor spaces including bedrooms and offices, and the materials are described as smell-free. As an ordinary household bedroom decoration with no open flame nearby, that is a reasonable basis for placement.

Can the branches on this olive tree be reshaped?

Yes — the branches are built around metal wire specifically so you can bend and shape each one by hand, and the tree holds its shape once set. Reshape gradually rather than forcing a sharp bend in one motion, and avoid repeatedly rebending the same stem — the wire fatigues with repeated flexing the same way any wired branch does.

How do I clean this olive tree?

Wipe the leaves with a damp cloth — no watering, pruning or other plant care is required. Work leaf by leaf with a microfibre cloth roughly every couple of months in a normal room, and avoid furniture polish or silicone sprays, which put a glossy sheen back onto foliage that is meant to read as matte.
