PENDOLINO OLIVE This olive is used mainly as a pollenizer in Tuscany, but for landscaping, Pendolino offers many desirable characteristics such as good cold hardiness and a dense, weeping canopy. It flowers early and profusely with a long bloom, but it is self-sterile and must be paired with another variety. Though small, this olive produces a moderate amount of good quality oil with a very mild flavor, low bitterness and delicate pungency. PICUAL OLIVE This olive comes from Spain. Easy to harvest and contains a high content of easily separated oil with pungent flavor that stores well. A popular table olive known to be high in beneficial chemicals such as oleic acid and Vitamin E. Cold hardy and self-fertile, produces higher yields when paired with a pollenizer such as Manzanillo.
