the olive tree we harvested olives from a couple of weeks ago.
olive tree
Olive trees have such cool leaves. Yeah, It was ice on the lake..It has warmed up this week.. Last week I blipped a guy skating on it.
Whenever olives are pruned it seems that as much is taken away as is left. I don't understand it really, as the trees don't double in size every year!
Work worth doing for a good crop next year.
I need to get out and do a bit of radical pruning here. Wish the bushes and trees concerned were half as interesting - and equally dry!
Oh, I need to do that with my plants and flowers so they will come back next year, too! Love the colors - great picture!
The more you cut off the better it is next year, if it is like the roses in our garden.
I've put a couple more of the old wash house on my photo blog :-)
The tree is still quite small- it's doing well.
Are the prunings aromatic if you used them on a bbq? Hopefully you get as good a crop next year as you did this year. Thanks for your comments re: wind. You're right. Wind affects everything so it is a matter of 'seeing'.
Love your blips, love your blogs. You have a new subscriber! It feels like ages since I last enjoyed an olive.
Lucky, no climbing involved!
