ASCOLANA TENERAArea of origin: MARCHES
TREE: A vigorous plant with a very dense crown of an upward shape and slightly drooping fruiting branches. The leaves are regular, elliptical, of medium size and an intense green color.
FRUIT: The fruit is ellipsoidal in shape, slightly asymmetrical with a top that is rounded or slightly sub-conical, light green in color at harvest and used for table fruit because of its very large size (8-10g). The flesh represents about 86-87% of the fruit and is of a milky white color. The yield can return 16-18% by weight and is classified as a light type of oil.
AGRONOMY: An auto-incompatible cultivar with a high percentage of aborted ovaries. Pollinators: Lea, Rosciola, Leccino, Frantoio, Pendolino. Good resistance to cold, peacock spot and the olive fly.
COMMENTS: Not withstanding the delicate quality of the flesh, this cultivar is very valued and is used and appreciated all around the world.
