    Hi there, I received a small olive tree with the suggestion that i could make it into a bonsai tree. It is roughly 20cm high but only about 4mm wide. It is currently sitting in a pot with five drainage holes at the bottom. It get’s a lot of sunlight, and I water it every now and then to make sure it stays moist. Is there anything I should be doing to improve it’s growth? At what stage do I start trimming it?
