Manzanillo

Manzanillo is one of the world's best table olives with a high flesh-to-pit ratio and great texture. Spreading habit and a smaller grower (to 7m over 10 years). An early bearing, high-producing tree suited to both pickling and oil production. Larger fruit can be picked when still green. Can be prone to peacock spot and does not like harsh frosts. Self-fertile, though yields will improve when planted with another olive variety such as Frantoio. Also sometimes called Manzanilla. Grows to approximately 3m×3m.
