Where I live (Adelaide, Australia) they are declared a noxious weed.
They grow everywhere. Even alongside my railway track where
they produce olives. Collected by Italians.

The website I looked at suggested that they olives are hardy at least down
to -12C,
It is a year or two old from the pictures on the site (2 ft tall).
I am in Tyneside a couple of miles from the sea and it gets below freezing,
but only to -10C in a very extreme year.
Do I plant it in the ground or keep it in a tub?
Other helpful tips would be appreciated.
