Does this tree produce edible olives? How soon?

Nothing yet, not even a flower yet.. But, it could take a while from what people have told me...

It does produce olives. It usally takes a year toe 2 before it is mature enough to produce.

We just bought it about two months ago so nothing yet I heard two years maybe?

I have had my tree for almost a year and have not had any olives yet. But I am hoping that I get some within the next two years.

Yes. Just dip it in some water or snuff it out in the ground or the dirt of a potted plant. They start just fine the next evening.

I would never cook with or ingest any olive oil labeled "pomace." Not only does it taste dramatically different, but also the extraction process is different than the EVOO we usually eat; pomace *can* include chemical solvents and other impurities (depending on the specific processor). This is wonderful oil for making soap but a bad choice for eating.

when used as directed it leaves a waxy thick natural coating that the bugs either get stuck in or cannot eat leaf through and thus die. The plant consumes the wax over a couple week period and that is why you would not spray edible plant within 21 days prior to harvest. Product is good for plants and All natural. A serious gardeners tool to maintain a healthy garden. Has an order and an unpleasant taste.

I am sorry, but I don't know the answer to your question. I just put the trees in this year, so have not see any significant growth or fruits yet.

This rather small fruit tree grows wild in India and parts of the Middle East. As far as I can ascertain, most, if not all, of the fruit is harvested from trees that are growing in the wild rather than cultivated. I question whether that would make a difference in the nutritional value of the fruit either one way or the other. The people selling this product apparently think that the fact that this product is from "wild-harvested" Indian gooseberries makes them more desirable. Here's to our health!

They delivered my tree in April. It started producing leaves, looked very healthy. Then we had a hard freeze from which it did not recover, and I am afraid it is now dead.

I just received the plant a few weeks ago and it is growing as I had to repot it. Too soon for it to give beans but I'm sure it will.

Janet: I purchased this tree earlier in the year and planted it in large pot in the yard. It's doing well but I know it will take a couple of years to bear fruit. You should feel confident in placing it in a pot. Laura

All parts of this passion vine are edible. It does make a fruit & it's edible. Pretty in salads, etc. personally, I will eat it fresh & dry it for tea (u can use it fresh for tea, too!). The tea helps u relax & sleep well.

The picture attached is the fruit you can eat. I bought the plant last year and it is growing, but still too young to product fruit.

I left my edible image in a cool, dry place away from sunlight & heat for a couple of weeks and it was totally fine. If you ordered now, it will probably be 8-9 days before delivery (esp w/ Christmas later this week), so it would only be a couple of weeks until your daughter's bday.

It's depends on it's size and weight....it needs to be over 10 pounds to produce fruit, usually. My plant took 1 1/2 years to get big enough to fruit. Good Luck!!

So far it seems to be! I have only had it since last summer. It lived on the deck in it's original pot until around October. From what I have read it can be outside in temps as low as 15F at night so watch the weather. For the winter I moved it into an unheated garage. It looked like a little twig all winter but perked right up when I put it outside in the spring! No fruit so far but we'll see.

all i can say is this... you can slide the plant outside on the patio for the spring and summer and it will produce fruit that way. you can slide it back inside the house for the winter and it should go dormant until spring. i am not really an expert to answer this question. if you could keep it by a bright window receiving lots of light from the sun it might produce fruit. it would be a cheap and fun experiment to try out anyway.a plant light might help. it would be fun just to try and see if it works.thanks!!!

It basically excises the pit by cutting into the fruit and pushing the pit out the other side. Works great on cherriesso I don't see why it wouldn't work on olives however instead of the standard pitted olive that where the olive is pitted only on one side it would push the pit through. I'm not sure if that would be ok or not. I like stuffed olives so it would work for me but guess you'd need large olives.

Just my experience, but I would eat them within a week, two weeks at most. I have not tried freezing them. The Internet says you can drizzle in olive oil and freeze for up to six months. Thaw completely in fridge, steam or microwave to warm.
