Hi Kcpoole some great tips there for collecting wild trees :tu: :tu: but this is one i find all so true with trees that i collect is

Low branching - If you collected a tree with no branches and it was 6 inches thick then it will take years to grow decent looking branches.

This is a common problem with big olives you get your shoots where you need them but have to understand it will take the next 10yrs of growing to get the branches big to suit the tree :palm:
