A faux olive tree gives a room a soft Mediterranean look with no watering or sunlight. Most pair a wood or molded trunk with silk or plastic leaves and fruit, and the main differences are height, the pot and how much the base weighs.

The six trees below run from 4 to 7 feet, with one black olive style. Sizes, materials and weights come from each product’s listing page. We have not used these trees ourselves, and claims about realism are the makers’ own.
