Olea europaea 'Mission'
Mission Olive Tree
A great olive for both brining and pressing, the Mission olive has excellent flavor and matures to a deep, rich burgundy-black. Beautiful in any landscape and great in a large patio pot. Adaptable to a wide range of soils and drought tolerant once established. Produces good yields on its own, but will produce even larger yields with a pollinator planted nearby for wind pollination, such as Arberquina or Koroneiki.
