Title: Ancient olive
Post by: John J on July 17, 2016, 08:55:32 AM

Yesterday evening whilst visiting the small mountain village of Potamiou this, obviously very old, olive tree was pointed out to me as being estimated at around 1,800 years old. It is believed to be the second oldest olive tree on the island. Apologies for the poor quality of the photo as I did not have my camera with me and had to rely on my rather antiquated mobile phone.
