Olive 'Picual'
A standard of the Spanish olive oil producers, this cultivar is the highest oil-yielding olive, suited to cold winters and hot dry summers, making ‘Picual’ ideal for inland regions of Australia. ‘Pendolino’ is the ideal pollinator, but any other olive will help improve pollination.
How to grow
Growing in a wide range of Australian conditions, olives are tolerant of poor soils, but grow best in a well-drained fertile soil. Fertilise in spring and summer and water during flowering and fruit set if required.
