Human comfort is powerful, especially through touch.

We did it! We moved a full-grown olive tree from the city to our desert homestead. It went through a lot as we put our pea brains together and came up with a way to move a twenty year-old tree from a small courtyard over a five foot wall! It was too crowded there and close to the house so if we had not rescued it, her life would have been over.

Olive Come out of depression Make me your own I sense you know me You draw me with your breath, your life I need you now as you now need me We're in Sonora in whipping Spring winds But you've been through much more then that and you will survive I will see that you thrive This poem was written during the two months my transplanted olive tree had yet to show new growth. When doubt came, I only had to bask in her presence to feel her spirit and know it was just a matter of time.

Before the move, she was full of branches.

More on the olive tree move. My Sunset Western Gardening book assured me it could be moved with almost 100% surety of success! I tried to think my way out of it and almost called the givers numerous times to cancel. But I couldn't get around that inspite of the difficult location, I still wanted the tree and didn't want it to die.The new owners said when they moved in, it was covered with olives. Fruiting olive trees are illegal to plant new in Pima County, but you can transplant.
