0009: Arbequina

We planted five olives and two peach trees Saturday at my parent's Potter Valley property. This is a Spanish olive, the third olive of the day and the first of three Arbequinas along a hillside berm.

It's a table olive as well as used to produce a highly valued olive oil, a more buttery oil with a slightly peppery finish.

Family: Oleaceae
Genus: Sequoia Olea
Species: europaea
Cultivar: Arbequina

olive, Arbequina
