Hi there Spanishlady.
You under your olive tree sounds just ideal

I have an olive tree but it would be very hard to sit under it as it is only a 1 ft high

I do how ever have a fig tree which is now five years old and is three times larger than seen here. It has begun to open out its leafs and when fully out they give a good amount of shade on our area patio. Also gives me loads of lovely juicy figs later on in the summer
