Nice one!
I dont know how Olives grow in Florida but here they fruit between 3-5 years, depending on cultivare, grafting or seedling type.
That one is between 2-3y/o.
Prepare jars for salted olives and better find some nice dry red wine!

P.S.
Here we say that Olive is like the Mother, U can forget it and leave it totaly neglected for years and the first time U get back to it and prune it and take some care about, it will bring U a full crop like U were allways there.
Olives never forget :)
