Re: olive cutting
Rips, when you make it up to Northern California next you need to look up Doug Philips. I think you and he would have a lot in common. He does some frequent collecting of olives and treats them very much as cuttings.
Here's Doug working over the roots of one of his collected olives that has been growing in a container for a year or two. He gets some wonderful trees with fantastic taper this way.

Re: olive cutting
Matt: You keep throwing this stuff at me. Any one can go out into an old olive field and dig up a stump. Believe me there are groves of older olives in the fresno area that were started by early settlers and farmers that are collectable. When you make a tree out of this material it is still a stump with a big hole carved into it. Yes yes there are exceptions but not many. Our goal is not to achieve a large trunk only. Artist ready material must have roots, nebari, tapor, limb structure and most important, choices. I do not show trees and I do not covet what other people have I only grow trees.
