USDA Growing Zones and Chill Hours

  • Thrives in USDA Zones 7-10
  • Requires minimal chill hours, ideal for regions with hot summers and mild winters 🌞

Pollination & Fruit Production

  • Pollination: The Tosca Olive Tree is self-pollinating, meaning you don’t need another tree to produce fruit, though planting additional trees can increase yield and fruit size.
  • Recommended Varieties: While the Tosca variety is self-pollinating, planting other varieties nearby can help improve pollination and boost overall fruit production.
  • Fruit Description: The Tosca olives are small, elongated and ripen to a green to black color when fully mature. The flesh is firm and smooth, with a mild, fruity flavor that is ideal for oil production.
  • Taste: Known for their subtle bitterness and fruity notes, Tosca olives are perfect for pressing into high-quality olive oil or for fresh consumption.
  • Ripening Time: The olives ripen in late fall to early winter, typically between October and December, offering a late-season harvest of premium fruit.

How to Plant & Grow Tosca Olive Trees

  • Sun Requirements 🌞: Full sun for at least 6-8 hours per day ensures healthy growth and abundant fruit production.
  • Soil Requirements 🌿: Prefers well-draining, slightly alkaline soil (pH 7.0-8.0), and benefits from soil enriched with organic material to support growth and fruit production.
  • Spacing 🌳: Space trees 10-12 feet apart to allow for proper air circulation and room for healthy growth.
  • Mature Size 🌳: The Tosca Olive Tree typically grows to a mature height of 12-15 feet, making it ideal for smaller orchards, container gardening, or backyard spaces.

Step-by-Step Planting Instructions

  • 1️⃣ Prepare the Soil πŸ§‘β€πŸŒΎ: Select a sunny location with well-drained, slightly alkaline soil. Amend with compost for optimal fertility and soil structure.
  • 2️⃣ Dig a Hole πŸ•³οΈ: Dig a hole that is at least twice the size of the root ball to ensure enough room for the roots to establish properly.
  • 3️⃣ Position the Plant 🌿: Place the tree in the hole, ensuring the top of the root ball is level with the surrounding soil surface.
  • 4️⃣ Backfill & Water πŸ’§: Fill the hole with soil, press gently to remove air pockets, and water thoroughly to settle the roots in place.
  • 5️⃣ Mulch Around the Base 🌱: Apply mulch or Weed Pro Weed Mats to help retain moisture and suppress weed growth around the base of the tree.

Ongoing Care & Maintenance

  • Watering πŸ’§: Keep the soil consistently moist during the first year. Once established, water deeply once a week, especially during dry spells.
  • Pruning βœ‚οΈ: Prune the tree annually to remove dead or damaged wood and to shape the tree for better airflow and fruit production.
  • Fertilizing πŸƒ: Apply Nutra-Pro 1st Year Fertilizer Paks to promote strong root growth. For mature trees, use a balanced fertilizer in early spring to support fruiting.
  • Protection πŸ›‘οΈ: Use Max Growth Tree Shelters to protect young trees from pests, animals, and extreme weather πŸŒ³πŸ›‘οΈ.
