Olive crazy is certifiably olive crazy.

Yeah ive gone rabbid reminds me of way back when i lived in adelaide brown hill creek was my back yard kind of use to look most days after work

I found a couple of Rippers today OV Biggest buggers I have seen. Nice big fluted root base

Realy have yu got any picture would love to see them

I didn't take the phone with me today but I will get a pic because I was hoping some one else will want to buy it off me. Hmmn I wish I could just keep them all though

Went back today to check this tree an found that the deadwood in pictures was just sitting on the ground not part of the tree .
But any way i checked out the tree an it looks good may get a raft olive out of it i think, been after one for a while but hard to find as most olives are clump style. Below is some pictures of the tree planning on going back to dig it out in the next week or so . Just up from it i found a little olive that i collected looked like it been eaten by sheep has some nice dead wood on it for a small tree .
