    Hi All

    I have been on the phone and on the Net looking for this olive tree in the Greater Vancouver, BC area.
    No luck. I know the source for many local nurseries are Monrovia and the grower on Saturna Island.
    Of the places I have phoned or visited none have any left.

    Anyone seen them locally in their travels?

    Thanks
    Ken

    When I Googled this a moment ago, I found 'Olea europaea 'Haas Improved Manzanillo' at Art's Nursery in Surrey. Available only in-store. I can't tell how old the entry may be. Good luck. It sounds like an interesting plant

    Thanks for the try, Margot but I have contacted them and none left. I have checked all 4 local nurseries
    listed by Monrovia as having received the Haas Improved Manzanillo Olive. Southlands apparently sold
    their last 2 just before our search started. The other 2 were Art Knapps on King George in south Surrey
    and Maple Leaf in North Van.
