Hi Mike,
Don't really understood what a raffle was at first, thought it was some kind of exibition. Doesn't matter anyway, I'm not be able to come

anyways.
Btw here are my two Olives, both were bought simultaniously at a gardencenter, with a little olivebottle attached to it 2 years ago. Olive203 has been put in the garden in october 2004 and stayed there during winter. I didn't think this was a good idea, so therefore I got it out spring 2005. Both were outside during May till end of september 2005, after that they went inside the house. Now they are on a North-East facing window on a stone window bench, with the central heater just 20-25 cm below.
For me the bark of both differ a lot, but it maybe has to do with the stage the trees are in. Maybe one is in the imature state and the other in the juvinile??
Hope you have some answers for me,
thanks Wessel
