Hi, thank you for your video it's helpful. I just have a question please, I bought a olive plant 18 month ago, from that time growing up by few leafs only, the plant it self is only one stick.so What should I do to bring it to a healthy and more stick olive plant? Thank you.

[@Backyard_Bonsai]

I would recommend repotting it, giving it some fresh rich soil. Olive trees tend to sit around for awhile before putting on growth spurts. Hope that helps!

Good lookin root structure! I just found your channel and watched your bench/greenhouse tour. Is this the one that’s thriving or the one that’s hurting now?

[@Backyard_Bonsai]

Hey Bald Yeti! Thanks for subscribing! This is the one that is thriving. It just started pushing new growth last week and is doing very well!

[@dreadfog9398]

Hey quick question, to turn it into a bonsai does it have to be a special olive tree species or can it be any kind of olive tree ?

[@Backyard_Bonsai]

Great question! It can be any type of olive tree! Bonsai is just creating a miniature version of any type of tree.

Wouldn’t’ have been better to use wires to secure it in the pot?

[@Backyard_Bonsai]

If I was going to keep it outdoors in the wind, yes. They stay in a greenhouse so it’s not an issue. Plus it cuts down on cost and time, and no risk of wire marks on the roots.

Ιs it still alive?

[@Backyard_Bonsai]

It is still alive and doing well! I should be posting some updates soon.
