Pollination
Arbequina Olive Trees are self-pollinating, meaning a single tree can produce fruit. However, planting multiple olive trees nearby can improve overall pollination and increase fruit production.
Planting & Care
Plant Arbequina Olive Trees in a sunny location that receives at least six hours of direct sunlight each day. Choose well-drained soil and dig a hole twice as wide as the root ball while keeping the same depth. Position the tree so the top of the root ball sits level with the soil surface, then backfill with soil and water thoroughly. Olive trees prefer soil that dries slightly between watering, so avoid overly wet conditions. Once established, they are quite drought tolerant. Prune lightly after flowering to maintain shape and encourage healthy growth. Container-grown trees should be placed in bright, sunny locations and may be moved indoors during cold weather in cooler climates.
