Abstract

In the 17-year-old olive grove located in the town of Grabovci in the Šibenik hinterland, the flowering phenophases were observed in May and June 2023. Flowering phenoases monitored on 13 olive varieties (‘Buža’, ‘Ascolana Tenera’, ‘Drobnica’, ‘Oblica’, ‘Picholine Marocaine’, ‘Gemlik’, ‘Istarska bjelica’, ‘Krvavica’, ‘Coratina’, ‘Rosulja’ ‘Leccino’, ‘Pendolino’ and ‘Frantoio’) according to the BBCH scale. It was found that the different varieties in the same area under the same environmental conditions had different flowering onset and duration, which can be explained by the varietal characteristics. The climatic conditions for the duration of flowering in 2023 in the area were optimal for the flowering of the observed varieties.
