Q.Olive Bush Care?

Zone UK Cheshire | Chris Jackson added on June 25, 2022 | Answered

I have an small olive tree/bush about 1 metre tall. It currently stand by a wall in a sunny morning position. It’s not looking as good as it did. Can I prune it and what is the best feed for it? I have had it for about 8 years and don’t want to lose it. Thanks 🙏

Now would be an excellent time to prune! They are not particular about their feed, either. I suggest compost, but many people use liquid or granular feed with no issue. Here are some articles that will help:
