Picholine is a classic French olive that can produce exceptionally high yields. The olives are medium-sized and considered a gourmet table olive, with fine flesh and of good flavour. They contain a high oil percentage of outstanding quality, which makes them a cood candidate for machine harvesting. They are initially a slow grower, and have a semi-erect habit. Both drought tolerant and cold hardy they are a great option for difficult conditions. They are a great pollinator for the variety Leccino.
