Avocado

Success!

Well done Klahanie. My two little trees are three years old. I prune them to keep them small enough to bring in for the winter. I don't think I'll ever get the fruit though.....

Appreciate your comments Bushbernie and Linda.

I remember you posing pictures of your nice avocados, Linda.They grow to be large trees so it is a good idea to keep trimming them.

Klahanie,

It looks good. I throw avocado pits under many plants as compost, now I have dozens popping up. Several popped up last year and now more are popping up. I have to pull them up before they become too large, as you probably know here in San Diego County we’re the largest avocado growing region in the U.S.

They are big trees so I understand why you are pulling them out Delonix. Are you just dumping them?
I love avocados. When are they fruiting around San Diego?
We picked them up from the ground around the Christmas time in Mexico ....competing with Mexican stray (street) dogs...they loved them too :-).
