Hey guys and girls. Yet another olive in my collection. Better slow it down 150 trees in only 4 years

mostly just crap that needs to grow

anyway I got this tree from the side of the road in early april 2014. I was driving with the old man and saw the olive on the side of the road. I told him to turn around and we will just have a look

you know what that means

as I pulled over and had a look I said ill just scratch around and see how well its anchored. a couple minutes later and I said you have anything to dig with. Well 20 mins later and some serious sweat we had it out using a screwdriver and a hammer. Only just got the tailgate shut on all the foliage as had nothing to trim it back. At this point the old man looked at me like I am seriously mad

got it home and potted it up and it has grown well since. Gave it its first trim and style on the weekend. It has a long way to go but this is it for now. There are a few straight sections on the trunks but will use foliage to cover the worst of it in the future.
