Not too long ago someone posted a photo of a really attractively pruned and maintained olive tree ... I can't remember who it was and I've hunted but can't find it  ... it's just what's needed on this thread ... https://forum.gardenersworld.com/discussion/1064324/pruned-too-hard-what-to-do#latest

Can anyone remember who it was to give us a clue ...

    I have a feeling it was @obelixx -- beautiful v shaped open branching mature olive specimen?
    Kindness is always the right choice.

    Not me.  I don't do olive trees.   Try using google instead of the forum's lowly search facility.

    That's the one but no, not Obelixx  ... think it was in a courtyard type garden ...  I'll keep searching ...

    Aha .... I think this may have been the tree in question, but I think it was a more recent thread ... @tui34 ... are you around ...

    A good hoeing is worth two waterings.
