Olive Leccino

Olive Leccino is a Tuscany cultivar. Heavy production of medium-sized fruit early in the season. It has low acid levels and a sweet flavour. It requires a very low chill, so suitable for all regions and has an attractive, vigorous growth habit.

Although Olives are self-fertile, all will benefit from having multiple plants to maximise fruit production.

Harvest: Olives for oil production are harvested when black, but for pickling, some varieties are picked when changing from green to greenish-yellow, and others are picked when turning black. Leccino is suitable for table and oil production.
