It has a very slow growth and can only produce after about ten years from grafting. It flowers between April and May. The seed is unique and elongated, light green in color, rich in oil and proteins. The harvest of the fruits is biennial and is done in odd years, between the end of August and the beginning of September, by hand, dropping the fruits into a shoulder-carried container or with the aid of tarpaulins or nets. This is followed by the removal of the hull, peeling, and sun drying for a few days. Purchase our Pistachio di Bronte D.O.P at www.emporiosicilia.it and you won't regret it!
