Title: Olive trees
Post by: soozie on July 07, 2007, 19:13:22

Just been reading post about gardening in France so has anyone pruned an olive? Mine has grown about 3 feet since the winter and has spread about the same. Should I wait till the winter to prune or can I do it anytime ???

Thanks

I have a potted one for my birthday and it has put on growth... I presume shortening the long growths will encourage fruiting spurs..
