Olives are a type of fruit and the produce of the tree *Olea europaea*. The tree thrives on rocky soil and requires a climate without extreme temperature fluctuations. It tolerates drought well but not low temperatures. It is cultivated in warm Mediterranean regions, near the coast, up to an altitude of 400 meters above sea level. The olive tree flowers in May and June, and the fruit ripens from November to February, depending on the variety and weather conditions. It is known for its longevity. Olive fruit can be eaten raw or used as juice extracted from the fruit (olive oil). The olive tree does not bear fruit for the first seven years after planting, and it yields the highest harvest after 20 years of growth. After 150 years, the yield decreases, and after 200 years, new wild saplings sprout in place of the old tree.

Sadnice maslina
Masline su vrsta voća i plod su drveta Olea europaea. Drvo raste na krševitom tlu i zahtijeva klimu bez velikih temperaturnih oscilacija, dobro podnosi sušu, ali ne i niske temperature. Uzgaja se u toplim predjelima Mediterana, uz more, najviše do 400 m nadmorske visine. Maslina cvjeta u svibnju i lipnju, a plod sazrijeva od listopada do veljače, ovisno o sorti i klimatskim prilikama. Poznata je po svojoj dugovječnosti. Plod masline se jede sirov ili se koristi kao voćni sok iscijeđen iz ploda (maslinovo ulje). Drvo masline prvih sedam godina nakon sadnje ne rađa, a najveći urod daje nakon 20 godina od sadnje. Nakon 150 godina urod se smanjuje, a nakon 200 godina na mjestu starog stabla izbiju samonikle mladice.

Description
We specialize in the production and sale of fruit seedlings, Mediterranean trees, and ornamental plants, with a focus on producing autochthonous species such as tansy, caper, jujube, Budrovka lavender, rosemary, and several varieties of domestic rosehip, including the 'Žrnovska apple'… Domestic varieties compete with imported ones as they are adapted to this climate, making them more suitable for cultivation and maintenance compared to imports. The market has recognized this, as imported seedlings struggle to adapt and survive in this area due to both climate and soil composition, requiring more care and nutrition.
Our company, with its expert team, provides consulting services as well as garden, plantation, and family farm (OPG) design and maintenance services, in collaboration with experts from the Institute for Adriatic Cultures and Karst Improvement in Split and other professional staff.
With fifteen years of experience in this field, as a seedling producer and sales manager at Vibor d.o.o., I have achieved significant results through my dedication—receiving the Golden Kuna award from the Croatian Chamber of Economy for the seedling production project and the revitalization of tansy and caper cultivation, unique and autochthonous Dalmatian ecological products for which I am the creator and implementer. Additionally, as a long-standing exhibitor of seedlings at the international olive growers' event 'Maslina Split,' we have received recognition for advancing Croatian olive growing and preserving and promoting original old olive varieties.
One of the most important projects I would highlight is the production of the 'Žrnovska apple,' where scientists from the Institute for Adriatic Cultures and Karst Improvement discovered through extensive research that this apple variety is more resistant to diseases than commercial apples, which require multiple protective treatments per season. This makes it suitable for organic cultivation, as it better withstands drier periods, is more durable, and can be stored longer. Most importantly, it contains up to 40% more polyphenols and flavonoids than other varieties grown here, making it a true health bomb and significant in the diet of the population and the tourist offer.
