My parents had an Olive tree in their front yard. We picked and cured olives one year. They tasted like black olives but were mushy. I don't know if we did something wrong or if that's how they were supposed to turn out. They weren't worth doing a second time - not from my perspective anyway.
The tree was beautiful, though. Very gnarled short trunk with 3 or 4 major branches coming off it.
So...green olives are a separate breed? Or are they simply unripened black olives?
There are several varieties of olive trees. More than ten. This one is grown in someones front garden.
Wow! I don't think I have ever seen an olive tree.
Yes, this one has black olives on it.

Posted by KateOahuI saw some pretty flowers on a walk today. I’d never seen a white Hibiscus before. And I do not know what the pink flowers are.
