What Flowers Can I Plant In My Olive Tree Containers?

Question

I have two olive trees in large containers in my south-facing London garden. What flowers could I plant in these containers around the olive trees? Thanks!

Answer 1

You do want to be sure there is enough room and the olive trees won't be competing for nutrition. I would stick with some simple annuals such as begonia, calibrachoa, or alyssum.
