One of our employees had recently lost her father, and we wanted to send her something to let her know we were thinking of her. After much internet surfing to find the perfect item, I chose to send an olive tree so that she could plant it with her small child and have a lasting remembrance. Her response was overwhelming. It was the perfect choice. Thank you for helping someone during a very difficult time!

I bought this Olive Tree for a client who suddenly lost her daughter. It was in honor of her daughter's life. It arrived in a timely manner and my client loved it.

I had an olive tree sent to a long lifetime friend of mine After her husband passed away suddenly… The tree got there in a very timely manner however, somebody else’s message must have got switched with mine and she got the wrong message… This was a little upsetting because this was a very very difficult time and I wanted her to know of our sympathy and thoughts for her. When I called to let seeds of life know what happened the person I spoke with literally had zero to no response about it like it was no big deal… they should really take the messaging part of sending their products more seriously

Our friends were so looking forward to us receiving their sympathy gift. They told us what day it was to arrive so that we'd be expecting it. I didn't have the heart to tell them that it looked like a few sticks with some leaves. As we own a landscape company I figured I'd nurse it into something following the enclosed instructions (although they were general house plant instructions and not plant specific). I didn't say anything to our friends as to avoid their disappointment. However, everyday I wake up to more and more leaves on the table. It's beginning to look like branches stuck in moss held up with two thin pieces of bamboo in which it comes with. I've had it less than two weeks. I'm sad that the money they spent to show their deep hearted sympathy and thoughtfulness was wasted.

Received one of your olive trees as a gift. Loved it / gave one to a neighbor. Pamela

I received this beautiful tree when my mom passed a couple of months ago. It even came with a beautiful plaque that quoted one of her favorite sayings. When it arrived I was overcome with love and gratitude. Such a thoughtful and wonderful gift. I read up on care as we were in the winter months and decided to pot it and put it in a bright sunny spot to nurture and care for until we were able to plant it. I read every article and watched every video on how to care for it and it still didn’t make it. It hurts my heart but it is truly a lovely and thoughtful gift.

I received an olive tree from your company as a birthday gift this past week. I was dismayed, however, to find a jumping worm in the soil. If you are unaware, this is an invasive and problematic species (see https://www.invasivespeciesinfo.gov/terrestrial/invertebrates/asian-jumping-worm). By shipping plants with infected soil you are spreading them further, putting habitats at risk. I encourage you to assess your practices to reduce the threat of further spreading this invasive worm across the US.

I wanted to LOVE this gift. In fact, I DO love this gift. I'm talking to the sad empty branches daily, reminded of my mother's passing and how even the tree that was meant to memorialize her can't stay alive either. Before the first frost came, I lovingly potted the olive tree, brought it inside near a bright window, and even bought a raised wheeling tray so it could be rolled as needed towards more light. Within weeks every leaf had fallen. I blamed it on shock, and here it is almost Feb. and even with regular watering, nothing is happening. Not even small bloom is coming through. Some leaves are bendable, but most have cracked when I tried to bend them. I have watched video after video on olive tree care and although I have done everything recommended, I fear it is just not hearty enough for this area of the US to thrive.

Sadly our gift in memory of a family member arrived dead. Hoping to have it replaced as it means a lot to us.

Arrived on time

I was a little hesitant placing my order at first because I was not familiar with the Seeds of Life company and since this was a sympathy gift I did not want it to be delivered late or for the olive tree to be a disappointment. I am pleased to say the tree was delivered early, the engraved tag was perfect and the olive tree was exactly as pictured.

This was a sympathy gift but I saw a photo of the plant. The recipient loved it.

While this was a sympathy gift and I did not get to see the olive tree that was delivered, my experience with the customer service team was top notch and delivery was quick. Will definitely return to Seeds of Life for future business.

We have used your products for our employees for our employees for many occasions. We have always heard that they loved them and are really nice.

We sent this gift to a dear friend who lost her father. The tree was absolutely beautiful and our dear friend appreciated and loved the gift so much. We would definitely use your company again. The Olive tree was the perfect gift and will be a beautiful reminder for years to come of her father’s love.

There is very little you can say or do to someone who is grieving that will make a lasting impact, but the right touch of sentiment can feed their soul -- and that's precisely what this gift did for a friend. The tree -- and the memory of her father -- will live on forever under her care, and will give her something to nurture and gaze upon to remember her father. She was so moved by the gift that she and her brother immediately planted it in the ground as a kind of ceremony. She said it was the most meaningful gift she received after his passing.

I am the recipient of one of these thoughtful gifts. Our family lost a wonderful part of our family who we miss everyday, our baby Tank .He was a sweet bully pit who was 8 months old.He loved watching dog TV if it had birds in it , loved swimming and watching the trees outside. It was a sudden loss and we are still grieving this special boy. This gift was so beautiful with the engraved plate and is helping us to heal. We have plans to plant together as a family.I love how the description states that it will feed birds and wildlife… he would have loved that🥹

I've now purchased (3) Olive trees through Seeds of Life as sympathy gifts, and they've always been so very well-received. Recipients tell me it's such a wonderful -- and unusual -- treasured gift...Hopefully, a little bit of a respite from the normal funeral flowers/arrangements. Quick shipping and easy purchase process. Thank You.

I can't say enough about the large olive tree. From ordering to delivery my expectations were exceeded! The tree arrived within 2 days and the packaging was so pretty and the tree is quite amazing. I couldn't be more pleased!

I recently ordered the large olive tree for a friend who recently lost her father.It arrived quickly and nicely boxed. She sent me a picture after taking it out of the box and it is so beautiful. I am beyond pleased.

I recently sent the medium olive tree to a friend and she was thrilled. It arrived very quickly and safely, it was the perfect gift for a friend going through a difficult time. I will certainly turn to Seeds of Life again for this type of gift in the future.

I simply love my olive tree! It was sent with such love and care! It was in perfect condition and I was able to repot it with no issues. It is beautiful!

The olive tree was a wonderful gift for a grieving family. I sent a personal note that they included with the shipment. Great service!

This is the second Seeds of Life I have sent. As the first, the olive tree was perfect and so appreciated by the recipient. I saw it and it was beautiful and perfect. I highly recommend.

Sent the large olive tree. Recipient was very grateful and even sent a picture of it planted. The tree was a nice size and looked very healthy. Is a really nice remembrance for family of someone who has passed.

Lovely gift in memory of "Papa" sent to two families and both recipients remarked on the very unique and beautiful gift! Definitely will order in the future...thank you!

In memory of Mike for Rita. Tree was delivered quickly and will be a beautiful memorial. I've purchased other items and Seeds of Life always does a great job.

Such a special gift to send. Arrived right on time and was packaged beautifully. Will be ordering another one in the future.

Purchase the olive tree for a coworker who’s father passed. The tree arrived in 3 days. The name plate was spelt wrong and customer service was amazing and quick to respond. The correct the error in a timely manner. The tree was in great condition on arrival.

This is the 3rd time I’ve ordered a memorial tree from here. Great experience and I must say it came within 2 days and it was a very full healthy tree, carefully packaged. The recipients were very touched.

We sent the larger olive tree to our friends and the tree was beautiful! Quick delivery. Very impressed. I will definitely recommend and use again!

Wonderful Olive Tree! It Shipped quickly & looked beautiful & healthy & as pictured on website! We have gifted this olive tree to several friends who’ve lost loved ones & they’ve been so touched.

My family loved the tree! It arrived healthy and beautiful!

Very beautiful tree. Such a nice tree to plant in memory of our special loved one!

Beautiful tree and amazingly fast shipping. I love to see it on our lanai.

When my sister passed, someone gave me a magnolia tree from this company. It meant so much to me. Every year when it blooms, I celebrate my sister. As the years go by and the tree grows, I imagine my sisters roots being planted in heaven. My family comes over and each time they walk outside to see her tree! I have even moved and taken the tree with me! Definitely hardy tree!Now... when someone passes... I send their family an Olive Tree with the Bible Verse... "But I am like an olive tree flourishing in the house of God" Psalm 52:8 and I know what a treasure it will become.. a blessing.

Seeds of Life never disappoints! Beautiful living tributes to comfort people during painful losses.

Excellent customer service and selection

I was so impressed when I saw the tree at my sister’s house. It was beautiful, and she told me that having a living reminder of her mother in law was such a special touch. Will definitely order again.

It was a beautiful thought. It came quickly and it was a great size.

I had 2 very close friends lose their fathers in a week of each other. It was so hard and I just wanted to give them something special to remind them of their sweet daddy’s. They both cried when I gave it to them. They were so touched. One said it would grow with the sweet memories of her dad. So special.

My friend that received the olive tree was deeply moved by the tree and the meaning. Absolutely wonderful service and gift!

I gave this as a gift to 2 school age girls and they were absolutely thrilled. It’s a sincere way to let someone know you are thinking of them. Delivered within a few days of ordering!

I got this for a friend whose father passed away. I wanted something that felt respectful and sort of be in memoriam, rather than a bouquet that wouldn’t last. He reached out to let me know it was so beautiful and he really loved it. I think because olive trees are symbolic of life but also peace, it’s the perfect condolence gesture.

Beautiful plant delivered fast!

Such a profound memorial gift. The recipient was very touched. Delivery was timely, too. A zone map on the website will complete the appropriateness of this gift for everyone.

Their products are amazing every time. I have ordered more than a dozen for varying occasions, every time it is perfect. Customer service is incredibly responsive if you have any questions. I highly recommend Seeds of Life.

It was a lovely gift. My Aunt loved the idea of a living memorial for her daughter. The only complaint I have is that I wish there was a disclaimer on what climate the tree can live in. Olive trees die in Texas. They’ve decided to keep it in a pot so they can bring it in during the winter. Just a little blurb about the ideal growth climate. I would have ordered another tree better suited for the weather.

I have ordered the Olive Tree for a number of friends who have lost loved ones. It is a deeply meaningful gift, and a living symbol of their loved one. The recipients were extremely touched and grateful to have a beautiful and lasting gift in honor of their family member. I will use Seeds of Life anytime the I need a special gift. And the customer service is excellent.

The most recent order I placed was as perfect as all previous orders. It arrived in excellent condition exactly when expected. The trees are a perfect token of sympathy for those who have a place for them and express love for years to come. People really appreciate the personalized engraved tags. Seeds of Life is my go to when I want to offer heartfelt condolences. Thank you.

This tree was loved by my cousin whose mother passed away. The family's Greek heritage made an olive tree an especially appreciated remembrance of her mom. The delivery went smoothly, and I received emails that allowed me to track the gift. I would use this company again.

When my Daddy died three years ago, a friend sent me a Seeds of Life olive tree with the plague in memory of...... This olive tree has given me so much comfort over the last three years. And the plague is still beautiful. An olive tree stands for peace and comfort. And looking at it every day on patio brings just that. For two years it actually grew olives!I have ordered 5 olive trees for friends since then that have a lost a parent. Each friend is always so touched and comforted especially with the plague.

Wonderful sympathy gift! I received one three years ago when my mom passed away. Knew it was the perfect gift to get for an employee.

My cousin lost her daughter to cancer. She loved this living memory of her daughter

We sent this to our family members that lost their baby girl at 32 weeks. The family loved the tree and planted it in their yard so they have a spot to remember sweet Gabriella.

I should have waited to order my tree and plant until warmer weather. I received a gift certificate from a friend when my father recently passed away. I was so excited to have a live memorial to look at and remind me of my Dad. I ordered the tree and plant right away and should have waited until the weather was better. We are having below 0° temperatures up here so when I received the packages, the soil was completely frozen solid in both plants. My plan is to keep both plants indoors. The customer service was great when I called. They told me to wait a couple weeks to see if they come back. If not, they would send me new replacement plants when the weather got warmer. Great customer service! I’m still waiting to see if the plants improve. The Olive tree is doing a little better than the gardenia plant but they are both struggling. I think this was my favorite gift of sympathy I received and because of the awesome customer service and guarantee, either way, I will have a tree and plant to memorialize my Dad.

I received a Magnolia Tree a couple of years ago when my Father-In-Law died It is Just beautiful& we see it and always will remember him.. so when My friend lost there Mom I sent the Olive Tree. They could not express how wonderful they felt knowing they will have this remembrance of Her...Also I have sent to my Son & Daughter in law a Magnolia tree for the Birth of our Grandson. Another beautiful occasion to remember..Your company and Products are so wonderful. And spiritual.

This was a wonderful way to commemorate a dear friend's mother. She appreciated it and I was so thankful to have an appropriate way of expressing my condolences.

My dear friend lost her mom, and I did not get a chance to send flowers for the services in time. So I discovered this beauty, and it was waiting for her when she returned home. She called me with tears of appreciation and joy since it was there to remember her sweet mom, and is also the symbol of peace and friendship. (If I didn't live in a climate where I am lucky enough to have one outside in my yard, I'd order one for me!)

Ordered an olive tree in memory of a young man. I had never really thought of it before but I received one a few years ago when my mother passed away. To this day the tree is beautiful and thriving. I asked the person where she had gotten that and she gave me your link. I called and ordered and sure enough I received the package and the tree is very nice. the name tag added a special sincerity to the tree. Thank you!

My friend who lost her mother was very pleased with the tree. She said she'll pour some of her mom's ashes at the roots so her mom's nutrients can feed the tree. Very special.

I received my little olive trees perfect and completely unharmed despite the delivery person not reading this side up right. The package was wrapped so well not even a single piece of dirt was in the box, and they were beautiful plants. The soil was still moist. Perfect and makes me happy to water them.
