    I was afraid I may have over pruned my two olive trees.....I realize, after this video, I barely touched them.

    'Just a little bit of the top'

    I’ve been terrified to prune my 3 year old Arbequina. This was so easy to understand and I feel more confident to prune. Thanks!

    I have 2 twelve year old Kalemon that were 6" tall when I brought them back to the UK, I sense that they are shaking as I am watching this!!! Nasta kala!

    This is exactly the directive I was looking for in my search. I too (have a pair)of young Olive Tees that have planted a little more than a year ago . I have both growing on each side of the driveway, anticipating a height of 15’-20’ ft. I don’t want “bushy” Olive trees for sure. I can just imagine the Gardener firing up his hedge-trimmers and having a go at them. Don’t want a pair of Tootsie Pops !

    Really helpful, thank you! I have a 8 year old tree in a 30 gal pot that's super leggy, guess I'll prune it back this weekend!

    You can cut them back pretty hard. Just cut them back to a shape you are happy with and it will be fine.

    Clear. Thank you.

  • @J_LOVES_ME

    Wow, this was very informative! I have one in a pot that is quite large and getting too whispy and gangly looking. Just looks bad. I may try a big trim on it to save it.

    my understanding , all plants & trees will balance root growth with shoot growth , the roots below ground need to support the leaf growth above ground & V a V , the leaf growth above ground needs to support the root growth below ground , once a plant is pruned , the remaining leaf system can no longer support the root system below the surface , so the plant will sluff off part of it's root system to put the plant back into balance , make no mistake though pruning will stress the plant making it more susceptible to pest or pathogen attack ,

    Awesome Video! I just pruned my olive tree after watching another persons video.. I pruned it while drinking strong IPA.. ( "Not Recommended", lol, as I just snapped off branches with bare hands and didn't take great care) I butchered it up a bit but managed to bend a few branches back as it was sort of lopsided.. Anyway I wish I had watched your video first! As it's much better than the one I used as my " Olive Pruning Guide".. lol.. May I please ask you what brand of clippers you're using? And model, as I need a new pair! Thank you and I liked your Dogs Cameo Appearance! I have Goat Schnauzers.. What kind of Pup is he? Anyway! I enjoyed watching you prune and I got a lot out of your Video!!!! Thank You! : ) I'm in the San Francisco Bay Area Wine Country.. Good Olive growing Mediterranean Climate here... ; ) Cheer's Mate!

    What if the lower part of the plant has empty branches, no leaves but the top of the plant is growing like crazy? I have a plant that looks like a skeleton with a forest on top?

  • @vitavaks

    Thanks 🙂

  • @mountainclimbers3809

    Great video. I have 1 Arbequina that I purchased that is multi-stem but very low - no 1 leader to create a 'trunk'. If I leave it, it'll brown like a bush,...but I'd like it more like a tree. Should I just go in and lop them off, leaving 1 strong one then plant it so it's going straight up?
