Olive Tree At Night

This is my latest olive tree, which I have planted in the patio. As you can see, just taken this picture tonight......Fitted a couple of spotlights as a focal point.

Hello Luis, I see you are also fan of olive trees. This is great idea! Very nice. Do you have olives as well?

Katarina .... Thank you. I do not have olives as yet, but I'm hoping to get some eventually.

Franny .... Thank you.

DD2 ..... Thank you. I decided to install spotlights, because when I am in the garden at night, it brings in a nice feeling of being abroad, especially the last few nights where it has been so warm :-)

Nana .... Thank you. It brings a new dimension to any plants I think :-)

Louis, I have had 1/2 kg of olives on my small olive tree for recent 2 years (look into my album). If you do not have two olive tress enough close, you have to work like Gregor Mendel or bee - just use eye-brush when the tree is flowering.

Thank you Katarina, for your valuable information. I will try that next year and see what happens. I will check out your pictures.........

I like to see lights in the garden, the blue ones are different and look lovely . Makes a really lovely focal point.

Thank you Linsuffolk. I think that the garden should be enjoyed at night as well, as it's so peaceful and tranquil :-)

What a wonderful area, makes me feel like sitting down with a glass of champagne. Well done Louis, I like it, it looks very warm.

Thank you Mossy .... I must say I have sat down in the evening with a glass of red wine on the patio to chill out. Will have to wait until next year to be sitting outside once again.....

IsnĀ“t it a good feeling, just to sit down in the evening and watch a nice exemplar into which you invest so much money that you could instead have one week all inclusive in Cyprus? Lol. My parents use to say to me, that if I better buy costumes for what I invested into plants and trees, I could wear each day a different one.
But - my love to trees is stronger. I am ape. Lol.
