Bring the taste of the Mediterranean to your garden with Olive Manzanillo Live Plants
The Olive Manzanillo Live Plants are a fantastic addition to any landscape, offering both beauty and utility. These vigorous trees boast a rising habit and long, pendulous branches. Known for producing table fruit, the olives are spherical and slightly asymmetrical, with a rounded top and bottom. The fruit, typically 3-5 grams in weight, is harvested early in September when green, offering a pulp content of 85-88%. The Manzanillo olive is cold-hardy and weather-resistant, making it a reliable choice for various climates.
This Spanish cultivar is highly valued in international markets for its distinct fruit shape, ease of pitting, and excellent flesh quality. Olive trees are self-fruitful, bearing both male and female flowers on the same tree, but mixing varieties can enhance yields. The evergreen foliage remains soft gray-green, providing year-round ornamental appeal.
