Does anyone have any experience with this Olive variety? Any potential scion material sources other than Fruitwood or OneGreenWorld? Even a review of OneGreenWorld would be fantastic as I have not personally used them before.

I purchased scion that failed to root from Fruitwood last year and usually if something fails I leave it until next season, but I can't stop pining for this variety of Olive. I need more evergreens in my yard anyways so I am thinking of swallowing the cost at One Green World $45 a tree, but I have never purchased from them before.

Thanks in advance!
It's always a good day when you get to plant a tree.

I'm growing it.  I bought it from some place online.  It is growing well in ground here.  I have 7 olive trees.  I have bought from One Green World, FourWindsGrowers and Bay Laurel Nursery.  Scoured for months looking for different variants.  I would not buy root source and scion, just the tree all done and ready to plant.  No issues getting the trees.  The last one I would like is the Leucocarpa white olive.  I will probably never get that one.
