A few farmers have started growing olives in south-central Georgia.  There 
was a big to-do among the foodie groups in GA celebrating the first oil 
pressed last year.  An Italian friend whose family has an olive grove has 
doubts that olives will do well in GA - he said olives can have problems in 
high humidity.

When I commented to him about the abundance of grapevines and olive trees one 
sees in backyards in Italy, he said, "Over the centuries people have figured 
out what grows well here, and that's what they grow."

I have a spot that is a bit more then a partial-shade situation; which of the 
would be a better choice (factoring shade-tolerance with 
disease-susceptibility consequent to inadequate early-morning 
sun-exposure/-drying.. 

European plum
Japanese hybrid plum
Edible crab-apples (Centennial, Chestnut, Wicksons)

Thank you,
