Manzanillo olives are an attractive, evergreen tree with leather-like leaves which are green with silver undersides. The Manzanillo variety is renowned for the quality of the fruit that is suited for pickling and oil production. It has great productivity and a high yield of fruit. Fruit should be processed before it is fully ripe to retain flesh firmness.

While Manzanillo is self fertile, a cross pollinator can increase your yields further. Suggested cross-pollinators are Frantoio, Picual, UC13 and Arbequina. The olive tree makes a very attractive specimen in containers and courtyard areas.
