I managed to graft Ederanol (B) onto a Wurtz (A)side branch and both are flowering in a tall Avo bag- still working out where I will put it?

Hi BK - That Ederanol / Wurtz took 2 years to flower - will know i 2 weeks if any have set - may keep one of each or Ederanol as not tasted that one yet :)

What are the Varieties on yours?

Are they types that can fruit in very warm conditions?

Mark i have bought all avocadovarieties that i ever saw in Thailand.

Hass chatuchak market
Hass imported from Spain
Booth #5
Michael (or MAckel) madamia(from Africa)
Pinkerton
Peterson

It's very hard to get grafted avocado's here but i've got them.

Booth #5 is grown in my area, saw those on the local market at the temple. The rest i don't know.

I've seen hass-chatuchak bearing fruit when 40 cm tall and just grafted, don't know where it was grown.

Winter is coming soon so we'll see if i get flowers.

They all sound interesting - hope they flower this year - Have you tried to source Safu tree -- Dacryodes edulis as is likened to an Avocado and grows in hot climates like yours and has similarities to an Avocado texture - seeds are available thru Europe and Linton may be able to help you with with a seed source?

I've got a bumper crop on my 3 year old wurtz this year, my other avo is a pinkerton, both are A type. I chose them for their compact size.

The safou easily gets cooked. A temperature of 20°c within two hours is enough for it. Therefore, It should be tranported on a cold temperature of maximum 5°c

That one will get cooked while on the tree here, even at night its' 30 celcius.

I will see them when they arrive in Europe.
I do have a tree of that red indonesian fruit which tastes like avocado and is family, forget the name of it. But i need 2 of those for pollination.

When you make a multigrafted avocadotree not all varieties grow well on a certain rootstock. Peterson almost won't grow on any rootstock.

Don't know if i have enough patience for the avocadotree to fruit, it better speeds up making fruit now.

I usually graft A to A & B to B.
Reed (A) is a pretty good rootstock for A's when you cant get Zutano -but Ederanol attached to Wurtz pretty good.
