Hi Could you identify what has caused these blotchy spots on our olives.

Our tree has produced a large crop as it normally does and it seems to be healthy. It gets pruned and feed each year

Hi Les,

Thank you for contacting Yates.

Looks like the plant is affected by peacock spot, unfortunately, as yet we don't have a product registered for this disease. 

Best to prune and dispose of off the most affected leaves and fruits to prevent further infection. 

Hope this helps and happy gardening :)
