I reserved 12 of the olives to try and get another tree or two started. A
bonsai is a wonderful idea. I have several bonsai now. An eight year old
beechnut, a 3 year old ginkgo and a 9 year old nightshade of some sort. I
also have a key lime with 7 fruits set, an orange in bloom and 2 grapefruit
trees one of which has a tiny grapefruit coming along. All were started by me
from seed. An olive sounds great! :-) Thanks for the idea.

I had not heard that it would. This is even more inspiration to get a bonsai
version going. :-)

It isn't that frigid yet. We have had several nights below freezing but the
days have been well above freezing so far.
