Olive (Olea Europa Linn.), although seldom fruit- 

 ing in Hawaii, the "oil tree' is nevertheless 

 well established, and is grown usually as an 

 ornamental tree. The dull, whitish green, 

 small, thick, lanceolate opposite leaves are 

 characteristic of thi.s low-growing tree. It 

 has been cultivated from the earliest times in 

 Syria and Palestine and in remote antiquitv 

 was distributed throughout the whole Medi- 

 terranean region. In recent times it has 

 been successfully planted in America, Aus- 

 tralia and elsewhere. The wild olive (O. 

 Oleaster) was once sacred to Pallas and its 

 leaves were used for victors' wreaths among 

 the Greeks and Romans — hence 'the olive 

 branch.' Many cultivated varieties of O. 

 saliva are recogniezd.
