Dear friends,

I planted six olive plants that I got from Patoki, about five years back. My are Bahawalnagar is quite warm, temrature in summer some times pass 47 degrees, the plants grew into about 9-10 ft hight, very healthy, and this time have few olives on them, I want to ask at what age the olive tree starts fruiting fully.

Regards

Zaighum.

assalamoalaikum Olives normally give fruit in fifth year . Always remember to prune your fruit trees. The branch which has given fruit this year will not five fruit next year so better prune that bran

olive requires only 1 rain per year and chill in winter. try to plant this tree on slopy area, where water cannot stop

life of this tree is around 1000 to 1200 years. plant them 20 feet apart
