The Leccio del Corno variety is a new modern variety from Italy. It was only “created” in 1929 in the province of Florence and is one of the most vital frost-tolerant oil varieties.
As artificial as it may sound, this is a cross-breeding process like any other olive variety other than the original olive, because without the human influence of the last 6,000 years there would only be the wild olive and no variety of countless oils just as many flavors.
This variety is referred to above as “weed olive” because there is no other way to describe it. Anyone who claims that an olive tree grows slowly will find their match with this tree, because with up to 50 cm increase in height per season, the Leccio del Corno variety is the highest-performing olive tree that we have in our collection of varieties. The root network also develops extremely quickly.
However, this performance takes a toll because without a compatible pollinator, Leccio del Corno will not produce olives. We therefore recommend planting a tree of the Leccino, Maurino, Frantoio, Moraoiola or Pendolino variety at a distance of 2-8 meters - then nothing stands in the way of a bountiful harvest.
Recommendation: Turbo Olive for rapid growth, magnificent fruit formation and strengthening of winter hardiness.
