\nThe olive tree is an evergreen and perennial tree. \u00a0The cultivation of the olive tree is limited to the two temperate zones and especially to the Mediterranean basin, which holds 98% of the worldwide plant potential and production. Cultivating olive trees is not demanding and this is why they can survive even in particularly inaccessible areas.<\/p>\n
The European olive tree (the olive tree which produces olive oil) has many varieties.\u00a0There are about 130 varieties of olive trees with 50 of them being the most well known. Some of these varieties are the result of a long process of development and adaptation to the microclimates where they were planted, whereas other species are the result of laboratory developments. Depending on the variety of the tree, olives can be categorized as small, medium and large caliber. Moreover, there are also ornamental olive trees.<\/p>\n
