Hi too all of you!
Here I would like to show you the development of my only (sadly) olive tree.

Thi is how it looked when still owned by Karl Thier from Austria. (photo by Karl Thier)

Nik, I like your tree. I remember seeing it on another post a year or so ago.
What I see for this tree is a bigger canopy to go with the massive trunk. Something like the live oaks we see on the coast of South Carolina.
I love the look of the old olive trees, I would love to have one in my collection.
Good luck with this one and keep us posted on its changes.

Could be that you saw it Ken.
But for this one I'll just make the crown denser.

That's very good work, and the tree looks fairly natural.

I agree with kenduncan, I would see a larger, a bit more rounded top, but this is your tree, and it looks very nice like that. Wink

Look at the first and the last image and you will see that I allredy shortened one jin (actually two but the other one is on the back side). The 'last one standing' gives the shari a nice start (or finish). I think I won't remove it.
But thanks for the tip any way.

I really like what you have done by removing the jin. The jin sticking off at a right angle from the trunk created a line that was too harsh/angular/contrived in relation to the trunk, in my humble opinion. I think the jin and shari you kept soften the straight line of the trunk nicely. Thanks for sharing your tree.
