It was like a promise of rain.
But it never rains in September here.
There are a lot of new olives on the old olives trees.
I have an olive tree near my front door and I wish it
would not be there but it is very old and the law prevents me from cutting it.
Exotic things are not always as good as it seems when it comes to live with them every day:)
I would LOVE that Olive Tree in my garden, it looks wonderful.
ReplyDeleteThat one is on a publick road.Also not far from my house. The one near my door is a real trouble becouse all the olives are falling down and make such a mess.
ReplyDeleteDon't you process them?
DeleteWhen they are ready, in november my neighbor is picking them.
DeleteToo cold for Olive trees here in the village, funny I've only recently developed a taste for them.
ReplyDeleteThere are several kinds of them. Some of them are very tasty but you can not just eat yhem from the tree.
ReplyDeleteThere are several olive groves in our district and we buy olive oil from one of the growers at the local '1st Saturday of the month' local markets. I haven't developed a taste for the olive even though there are many concoctions available in the shops. The olive tree always looks peaceful for some reason; maybe its the shade they provide?
ReplyDeleteIalso use olive oil but I buy it.
DeleteThe tree you show is beautiful. Olives are grown commercially in Australia now.
