Italian influence

When I was in Italy in the northern autumn of 2006, I stayed on an olive farm just outside Assisi. Upon my return, I planted two small olive trees in large planters for my rear courtyard. In the interim I have assiduously pruned to create two trees that are fleshed out and about 6 foot tall. I am hoping they will fruit this coming spring. Above, looking through my canopy.
