Like Ascolana, Rosciola is another vigorous and upright growing tree, and is claimed by the Lazio region of Italy. Unlike the other more purple varieties at early harvest, Rosciola derives its name from the pink hue it develops as it ripens. Cold hardy and productive, it is considered dual purpose so olives are used for both table olives and for pressing for oil. Leaf colour is a slightly darker green than the more silvery Ascolana and Frantoio and produces medium sized drupes. This variety will be part of the 3rd grove we are planting on the farm.
