Olea europaea ‘Paragon’, commonly known as Paragon Olive, is an attractive evergreen tree valued for its silvery-green foliage, Mediterranean appearance and edible olives. Its narrow, lance-shaped leaves create a classic ornamental look, making it suitable for home gardens, courtyards, feature planting and larger landscapes. With its neat form and drought tolerance once established, this olive variety is a practical choice for Australian gardens.
Olea europaea ‘Paragon’ thrives in a sunny, well-drained position and is well suited to warm, dry conditions. Its olives can be harvested when mature and are generally used for curing and other culinary purposes. Regular watering while establishing, occasional pruning and light feeding during the growing season will help maintain healthy growth and an attractive shape.
