Brief botany, and notes on the cultivation of the tree, and the varieties available.
http://www.crfg.org/pubs/ff/olive.html

Extractions: Common Name: Olive. Related Species: Wild Olive ( Olea africana ), Oleaster ( O. europaea var. oleaster Distant Affinity: American Olive ( Osmanthus americana ), Fragrant Olive ( O. fragrans Origin: The olive is native to the Mediterranean region, tropical and central Asia and various parts of Africa. The olive has a history almost as long as that of Western civilization, its development being one of civilized man's first accomplishments. At a site in Spain, carbon-dating has shown olive seed found there to be eight thousand years old. O. europaea may have been cultivated independently in two places, Crete and Syria. Archeological evidence suggest that olives were being grown in Crete as long ago as 2,500 B.C. From Crete and Syria olives spread to Greece, Rome and other parts of the Mediterranean area. Olives are also grown commercially in California, Australia and South Africa. There is some disagreement over when the trees first appeared in California. Some say they were introduced in 1769 when seeds brought from Mexico were planted. Others site the date 1785 when trees were brought in to make olive oil. Adaptation: Growth Habits: The olive is an evergreen tree growing to 50 ft. in height with a spread of about 30 ft. The tree can be kept to about 20 ft. with regular pruning. The graceful, billowing appearance of the olive tree can be rather attractive. In an all-green garden its grayish foliage serves as an interesting accent. The attractive, gnarled branching pattern is also quite distinctive. Olives are long-lived with a life expectancy of 500 years. The trees are also tenacious, easily sprouting back even when chopped to the ground.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Botany

Extractions: Botany is the scientific study of plant life . As a branch of biology , it is also sometimes referred to as plant science(s) or plant biology . Botany covers a wide range of scientific disciplines that study the growth reproduction metabolism development ... diseases , and evolution of plants Nearly all the food we eat comes (directly and indirectly) from plants like this American long grain rice. This is one of the many reasons that botany is an important topic of study and research. edit As with other life forms in biology, plant life can be studied at a variety of levels, from the molecular genetic and biochemical level through organelles cells tissues organs , individuals, plant populations , and communities of plants. At each of these levels a botanist might be concerned with the classification ( taxonomy ), structure (

Extractions: Botany Quest Introduction Task Process Evaluation ... Teacher Page Introduction You are a team of botanists hired to help our class save their dying plants. There are four different plants in our classroom. Each plant is not growing well. Your team will be assigned to one of those plants. It will be the job of your team to observe, research, and inform our class what they will need to do in order to save one of our poor dying plants. Thank you! Task Your team will be assigned to one of the four plants. If you are team #1, then you will work on plant #1, and so forth. You will need to look at your plant and study the current health of your plant. See how it looks now. Where is it located in the classroom? Where it is at will make a difference on how much light it will get. Put your finger in the soil. See how the soil feels. Is it wet, dry, or moist? This will show how much water it has. Record your information. Then research everything you can about the plant. There may be other things to help you save your plant. When you have learned all you can about your plant, you will need to give the class a report on what your plant looks like, what you found, and what we can do to save our plant. We are counting on you!
