Market day olive

Post by Isitangus »

I bought this fat little olive from the market day.

It had this hollow section, so first job was to carve to make sure the holes joined up and had a drainage path.
Repot into a colander, feed, TLC and it hasn't looked back.

I'll let the carved section weather/age for a bit then will treat with earls.
Comments and suggestions welcome.
