Q: I have a 30-foot-high, 30-year-old olive tree. How severely can it be pruned?
A: In general, a mature tree shouldn't be pruned more than approximately 20% in one season. However, this figure can vary, depending on the individual tree.
Not all large old olive trees can be pruned the same. The pruning history, health, and overall condition are just a few of the factors to be considered when correctly pruning a tree. You are advised to contact a licensed tree service for best results to maintain the health of your tree.
