    I planted my olive tree in the garden and it is doing well in the warm south east
    I get loads of olives each year but none have ripened this tear, bad year for my fig tree as well

    I got 2 Olives this year <laugh>

    The summers here in Finland are pretty good, I am up 5 floors as well.

    what a fookin idiot, I completely forget it gets minus -10 or more even as far south as Helsinki. Dope<doh>
    I don't think it likes anything below +10c and the air gets uber dry here in winter, so dry it sucks the moisture from your skin.

    I have to spray the tree now every day until next summer. Ugh

    Why don't you buy a little humidifier and stand it on the other side of the room? You could pick one up over here for about 20 or 30 quid that would do the job. Not sure of the prices where you're like.

    Magnolia flowing react to local weather not climate

    You're well south so you're more exposed to the southern warmth coming from France and even from Africa up through Spain and France. Also depends on cloudiness I guess

    Central England is more stable and the north, well we know they get **** and shine sometimes in equal measures :D

    It's not necessarily about what you get from the crop, it's the enjoyment of looking after it all year round more than anything and if he's having to spray it down every day, I'd just plug in the humidifier and let that do the work.
