id recommend putting it in a grow box or in the ground to let regain vigour. It will also help to create taper and grow out the new leader fast. I use a combination of selective pruning and wiring to shape my olives.
Jamie i like your virt. some carving and jins always looks good on olives too.
we have lots of olive trees here in Adelaide and i cant wait to collect a few this yr. didnt get any last yr

Jamie - love your work mate
Ketutg - it's in a grow box right now only just fitted in
It was pushing new roots and shoots in the box so it should go strong now that it's getting some sun
