Category: Plants

Famous for the most fruity and aromatic oil in Tuscany where the Italians call it Paragon. In fact, the name 'Frantoio' refers to the village press used to extract the prized oil. With an oil content up to 25%, this is the olive to plant if you are looking to press your own. Will grow over a wide climatic range, from inland Tasmania to southern Queensland, but will need to be stressed a little in warm winter areas to force fruiting. Self-pollinating.

Henry ★★★★★

I planted this olive tree in a large pot on my patio, and it's already putting out new growth after just two weeks. The leaves have a lovely silvery-green shimmer that catches the morning light beautifully. Can't wait to try pressing some oil from my own Frantoio olives someday.

Robert D. ★★★★★

I opened the bottle and immediately caught that distinct Tuscan fruitiness I’ve been missing since my last trip. It’s even more aromatic than I expected, and a little goes a long way in salads.

Chloe L. ★★★★★

That first pour smelled like a sun-warmed Tuscan grove — the aroma alone is worth it. It’s noticeably heavier and more peppery than my usual grocery-store oil, and a little goes a long way on salad greens.
