Russian Olive Tree Planting Kit (Elaeagnus angustifolia) by Meinwoody

The Russian olive's intensely sweet fragrance in May and June attracts swarms of bees – making it one of the most valuable early summer food sources for them. It is also exceptionally undemanding: it thrives equally well in gardens and pots, tolerates cold, heat, and wind. And its berries are edible. With this kit, you can plant it yourself: open, press in seeds, water. Done.

What's inside

  • 5–10 Russian olive seeds (Elaeagnus angustifolia)
  • Plastic-free plant pot made from hemp fiber composite – 100% compostable
  • Approx. 150 ml Terra Preta soil
  • Dimensions: 6 × 6 × 5 cm (L × W × H)
  • Grass paper box with planting instructions

Facts about the Russian olive

The Russian olive (Elaeagnus angustifolia) is one of the most ecologically interesting plants for gardens and pots – robust, useful, and versatile.

  • Bloom: May–June, intensely sweet fragrance – excellent bee pasture
  • Natural fertilizer: lives in symbiosis with nitrogen-fixing bacteria – fertilizes itself & other plants
  • Edible berries – ideal for jam or alcoholic beverages
  • Undemanding: thrives in gardens & pots, tolerates heat, cold & wind
  • Growth strongly light-oriented – illuminate from all sides if possible
  • Silvery-green leaves – decorative solitary tree or hedge plant

How it works

Press seeds into the soil, water – and let them grow. After cultivation, you can plant the seedling directly with the compostable pot into the ground or a larger container. The pot decomposes without residue within 12–24 months. Your plant will root freely and undisturbed.

Germinating Tree Seeds

1. Place about 5 tree seeds in the freezer for 24 hours, then in lukewarm water for 24 hours to soften. Please note: do not apply this step for Moringa. Moringa cannot tolerate frost.

2. Place WOODY on a saucer. Press the softened seeds 1-2 cm deep into the soil. Then water until the soil is nicely moist.

3. Place WOODY in a bright spot. Keep the soil moist until the seeds germinate. Germination can take about four to twelve weeks.

4. Plant your tree when it is more than twice as tall as the pot is wide. Place the tree, including the compostable pot, into the soil.

Further planting and care tips can be found here.

* A saucer is not included in the delivery.

Bitte beachte: Pflanzen sind einzigartig und können sich in Aussehen, Farbe, Form und Größe unterschiedlich und verschieden zu unseren Angaben und Bildern entwickeln. Äußere Umstände wie Bodenbeschaffenheit, Klima, Luftfeuchtigkeit, Luftzufuhr oder Temperatur können die Entwicklung von Pflanzen maßgeblich beeinträchtigen.
Vereinzelte Baumsorten sind genetisch so veranlagt, dass die Keimung bis zu fünf Monate dauern kann - hier ist besonders wichtig, die Erde dauerhaft feucht zu halten und geduldig zu bleiben.
