Cultivars

Cultivar: Picholine (origin - France)

 

Picholine appears to have a lot of potential here in Oregon, although our trees are still young.  They are growing well and appear to be winter hardy, even as young trees in a pretty severe winter weather year (2008).

Picholine olives are used primarily for making green table olives: Olives de Nimes.  They have a distinctive shape: asymmetric and elongated with a pointed apex; but no nipple.  Freestone.
