Olive - Kalamata
We purchased this plant in part for its cross pollination benefits. The plants arrived in good condition and are happily growing away in our mixed species orchard

My mum went and impulsively purchased this olive tree 3-4 years ago. She neglected it, didn't water it, left it in the pot for the entire time. When I moved a year ago, mum gave me the plant because she had nowhere to put it. I planted it in the ground...

Looking forward to this variety. Must water at fruiting time to ensure fruit does not drop.

'Kalamata', a large, black olive with a smooth and meatlike taste, named after the city of Kalamata, Greece, used as a table olive. These olives are usually preserved in vinegar or olive oil.
