My Prized Olive Bonsai

[monza]

I've been growing it from seed, this is year five I think? I cut it back hard after this pic and it's really thickened up it's now the size of a pencil! Any styling tips? It's back inside with my other prized sticks for the winter flourishing.

It's the one in one of my cherished bonsai pots.

Love your sense of humor dave!
I wouldn't make it 5 years with a seed. Too impatient, although the process would be fun.

at least the leaves arent turning yellow and falling off

I believe all Daves should have a descriptive prefix to their name...

that one just earned you

Silly Dave

Yep all green! No bugs either. The guy I bought the magic seed off on the side of the road did say it would be a bit bigger?


Good one BigDave!

I think you should consider entering it in the Artisan's Cup next fall.
