Theres thousands of olives around here ( SA ) , of course they're not all like the above specimens though, I've looked at a lot of olives over the years and just picked out the best of the best, its a race against time now though with the Greenies, they are busy poisoning the lot, I think the olive is the floral version of the rabbit, it has completely taken over the Adelaide hills as an invasive species pushing out the natives.

bugger me man, you should go and get the lot, if you do i would be more than happy to grab a few off you no wuckin forries. let me know if you are willing to do that. if i had that in melbourne i would be digging untill i had the lot. the only ones good enough to take here are from the ethnics back yards and if you get caught taking them they most likely would put a shotty up your clacker. :D :D

I am seriously loving that last one mate.

Must make a trip back down to SA as I don't have any of your fabulous Olives left. I have seen Olives from just about every state in Ozz, except NT - there aren't any I am aware of, but I still think the SA ones are the best. they seem to have the best bark and the smallest leaves.

And to all you other guys, good luck in digging every Olive is SA. I dont think we, as a collective group could clear all the Olives from just one suburb of Adelaide, let alone all of SA. They really are every where, more so than Figs in Sydney even :lol: .

#5 and #6 are great as is the last one. On a number of the others watch your height... it is getting away from you and the trees could look better and older if they are a bit lower. But overall... WACKO!!! You are safe from me... all too large for me to handle but good stuff!!!
