I am looking to get some olive tree saplings. What is the best soil for them? I know they are a touch acidic, so adding Kakuna to the soil would work. But, I do not know the soil ingredients. Thank you for your help. Carol.

If they are very young then any potting compost will do as long as it is free draining. I use Akadama and pumice for my Olives.
