Discreet because almost nobody notices it; striking because, at its peak, it covers the base of the olive tree as if it were snow. <\/em><\/p>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group articulo-callout is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">KEY FACT<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Only 2% of olive flowers are pollinated and go on to become olives.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A curious fact: olive pollen grains travel hundreds of kilometres, even reaching Morocco. In this way, olive trees in Andalusia pollinate Moroccan olive trees and vice versa, fostering genetic diversity and explaining the huge variety of olives that exist today. <\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The <em>flowering<\/em> cycle<\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The olive tree flowers between April and May. After a few weeks, a white layer of fallen flowers is left beneath the trees: only 2% are pollinated, and of that 2% the tree carries out a kind of &#8220;screening&#8221;, shedding some of the new fruit to ensure the proper growth of those that remain. Flowering lasts barely a week.  <\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Cross-pollination and <em>Natural Coupage<\/em><\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It occurs when one variety is pollinated by a different one, for example Hojiblanca by Picual. In our century-old olive grove, where Picual, Picudo and Hojiblanca trees grow intermingled, the resulting olives are not 100% any single variety, but a natural blend of all three. This cross-pollination is partly responsible for the unique nuances of our Natural Coupage, an EVOO that is very difficult to reproduce.  <\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"930\" height=\"622\" src=\"https:\/\/www.suertealta.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/image-29.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3758\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.suertealta.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/image-29.png 930w, https:\/\/www.suertealta.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/image-29-300x201.png 300w, https:\/\/www.suertealta.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/image-29-768x514.png 768w, https:\/\/www.suertealta.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/image-29-600x401.png 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 930px) 100vw, 930px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group sa-faq is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Frequently asked questions about the olive flower<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div data-wp-context=\"{ &quot;autoclose&quot;: false, &quot;accordionItems&quot;: [] }\" data-wp-interactive=\"core\/accordion\" role=\"group\" class=\"wp-block-accordion is-layout-flow wp-block-accordion-is-layout-flow\">\n<div data-wp-class--is-open=\"state.isOpen\" data-wp-context=\"{ &quot;id&quot;: &quot;accordion-item-1&quot;, &quot;openByDefault&quot;: false }\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.initAccordionItems\" data-wp-on-window--hashchange=\"callbacks.hashChange\" class=\"wp-block-accordion-item is-layout-flow wp-block-accordion-item-is-layout-flow\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-accordion-heading has-icon has-icon-right\"><button aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-controls=\"accordion-item-1-panel\" data-wp-bind--aria-expanded=\"state.isOpen\" data-wp-on--click=\"actions.toggle\" id=\"accordion-item-1\" type=\"button\" class=\"wp-block-accordion-heading__toggle\"><span class=\"wp-block-accordion-heading__toggle-title\">When does the olive tree flower?<\/span><span class=\"wp-block-accordion-heading__toggle-icon\" aria-hidden=\"true\">+<\/span><\/button><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div aria-labelledby=\"accordion-item-1\" data-wp-bind--hidden=\"state.isHidden\" data-wp-on--beforematch=\"actions.handleBeforeMatch\" id=\"accordion-item-1-panel\" role=\"region\" class=\"wp-block-accordion-panel is-layout-flow wp-block-accordion-panel-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Between April and May, for barely a week.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div data-wp-class--is-open=\"state.isOpen\" data-wp-context=\"{ &quot;id&quot;: &quot;accordion-item-2&quot;, &quot;openByDefault&quot;: false }\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.initAccordionItems\" data-wp-on-window--hashchange=\"callbacks.hashChange\" class=\"wp-block-accordion-item is-layout-flow wp-block-accordion-item-is-layout-flow\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-accordion-heading has-icon has-icon-right\"><button aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-controls=\"accordion-item-2-panel\" data-wp-bind--aria-expanded=\"state.isOpen\" data-wp-on--click=\"actions.toggle\" id=\"accordion-item-2\" type=\"button\" class=\"wp-block-accordion-heading__toggle\"><span class=\"wp-block-accordion-heading__toggle-title\">What percentage of flowers become olives?<\/span><span class=\"wp-block-accordion-heading__toggle-icon\" aria-hidden=\"true\">+<\/span><\/button><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div aria-labelledby=\"accordion-item-2\" data-wp-bind--hidden=\"state.isHidden\" data-wp-on--beforematch=\"actions.handleBeforeMatch\" id=\"accordion-item-2-panel\" role=\"region\" class=\"wp-block-accordion-panel is-layout-flow wp-block-accordion-panel-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Only 2% are pollinated, and of that percentage the tree discards some to ensure the growth of the rest.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div data-wp-class--is-open=\"state.isOpen\" data-wp-context=\"{ &quot;id&quot;: &quot;accordion-item-3&quot;, &quot;openByDefault&quot;: false }\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.initAccordionItems\" data-wp-on-window--hashchange=\"callbacks.hashChange\" class=\"wp-block-accordion-item is-layout-flow wp-block-accordion-item-is-layout-flow\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-accordion-heading has-icon has-icon-right\"><button aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-controls=\"accordion-item-3-panel\" data-wp-bind--aria-expanded=\"state.isOpen\" data-wp-on--click=\"actions.toggle\" id=\"accordion-item-3\" type=\"button\" class=\"wp-block-accordion-heading__toggle\"><span class=\"wp-block-accordion-heading__toggle-title\">What is cross-pollination?<\/span><span class=\"wp-block-accordion-heading__toggle-icon\" aria-hidden=\"true\">+<\/span><\/button><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div aria-labelledby=\"accordion-item-3\" data-wp-bind--hidden=\"state.isHidden\" data-wp-on--beforematch=\"actions.handleBeforeMatch\" id=\"accordion-item-3-panel\" role=\"region\" class=\"wp-block-accordion-panel is-layout-flow wp-block-accordion-panel-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When one olive variety pollinates a different one.
