Only three fruit - I wonder if I should feed it?

Sheila, thanks for posting your olive tree. I’ve mentioned in my post mine is on the ground, on the rockery in poor-ish soil. I haven’t fed it at all, maybe it’s been just a bit of luck on my part? We’ve had ours a few years and this year it just seems to have ‘awoken’..hope it’s kick started its growth and it will continue to thrive. 🤞

Come to think of it, it has grown quite a bit this year 🙂.
