These dwarf avocado plants offer several benefits. The fruit is oval-shaped with a small to medium seed, making it incredibly easy to peel and enjoy. The taste is superb, and the size ranges from average to large, approximately 5 to 8 oz. The skin is pebbly, thick, yet pliable, while the flesh is pale green with a creamy texture. You’ll love the abundant harvests from these sun-loving trees! Imagine having a constant supply of fresh avocados right at your fingertips. Not only are avocados delicious, but they are also incredibly nutritious, packed with healthy fats, vitamins, and minerals, making them a great addition to any diet.
Our grafted avocado plants are of the highest quality, grown on a variety of clonal rootstocks and grafted onto certified disease-free root stock. The trees bloom with yellow flowers in the summer. They are hardy down to 20°F and grow to a manageable height of 6-12′ tall. Space plants 4-8′ apart and water thoroughly when the soil is moderately dry. Shield from winter wind for optimal growth. These grafted fruit trees are self-pollinating, meaning they will bear fruit without another variety nearby. With proper care, you can expect an abundant harvest of delicious avocados.
