Olive Tree Planting
Hi,
The high winds over the weekend has blown over and smashed a large terracotta pot in which I have an olive tree approximately 5 foot high. The pot was on my patio in a westerly position.
I'm considering whether to replant in a new pot which could blow over again or to plant in the centre of my lawn which is in a easterly position. Any advice please ?

I would re-pot it and move it to another spot and slowly get it acclimatised to a new area in the warmer months. Also, younger/smaller plants tend to grow better and adapt better. Mature size shrubs/trees are more tricky with an established root ball, they take a long time to reach into ground soil, so if you choose to plant out, you need to plan ahead for those things.
