Plant Description

The Elaeagnus angustifolia, or Russian Olive, is a hardy deciduous shrub or small tree known for its silvery-green, narrow leaves and fragrant yellow flowers. The leaves have a soft, silvery sheen that adds a unique texture to landscapes, and in late spring, small, yellow flowers bloom, exuding a sweet scent. By autumn, the tree produces small, edible, olive-like fruits that ripen to a silvery-brown. Its rugged bark and silver-toned foliage create an eye-catching, drought-tolerant presence, making it ideal for arid and poor soil conditions.
