Description
Olive is an evergreen tree growing to up 15.2 m in height with a spread of about 9 m. Olives are nearly round with an elongated shape. They measure between 2 and 4 cm long depending on the variety. Olives are picked before they begin to change color from green to yellow-green or just before the red-ripe stage. The fruits can range in color from dark to light green blushed with red, known as the ‘veraison’ stage. The flesh is very firm and has a grassy, bitter flavor that can coat the tongue for hours. In the center is an oblong seed or kernel up to 2 cm long.
