Easy-Growing, Early-Ripening Olives

Why Leccino Olive Trees?

Prized for its unique weeping form and large, early-ripening fruit, the Leccino Olive Tree offers authentic Italian taste in your own backyard. And it’s one of the most versatile olive varieties available, thriving in the ground or in a container indoors.

So, this Tuscan-native tree grows nearly anywhere. Unlike other olive varieties, it thrives season after season and can fruit in two years or less. Plus, it's hardy down to 20 degrees when grown outdoors and resist pests and diseases with ease. Though the Leccino needs a pollinator like the Arbequina to fruit, it's famous for its reliable, heavy harvests and deliciously fruity olive oil.

In fact, you can get up to 20 pounds of olives each year from your Leccino. And since it's moderately drought tolerant, missed waterings are no problem. The Leccino isn't fussy and keeps on growing despite neglect.

Pollination Info

Leccino Olive Tree Pollination

Leccino Olive Trees are not self-fertile. You will need to plant another variety to achieve fruiting. Below are the most effective pollinators we have chosen for your area...

Planting & Care

1. Planting: Plant your Leccino Olive in an area that receives 6 to 8 hours of sunlight each day and in well-drained soil for best results. We recommend using a pollinator for the Leccino – the Arbequina is a good option for best fruiting and higher production.

Dig a hole twice as wide as the root ball. Place it inside the hole and backfill soil, tamping down as you do. Finally, water your Leccino to settle its roots.

If you're container-planting, select a pot (with drainage holes) that's twice as large as your plant's shipped container. Use organic soil, place your tree in the pot, and select a sunny spot for your Leccino.

2. Watering: Simply check your soil. When the soil is dry down to the first 2 inches, it’s time to water the tree.

3. Pruning: During the first few years, only minimal pruning is needed for your Leccino. For indoor trees, pruning regulates fruit production and shapes the tree for easier harvest and your desired size.

4. Fertilizing: Feed with a nitrogen-based blend, following label instructions. Fertilize your Leccino until it starts bearing olives.

5. Harvesting: If you’re wanting to harvest naturally black olives for table use, pick them in November. If you want green olives, harvest in September.
