Question & Answer
Avocado Varieties for North Queensland - Hello Ran out of space before. Also, can you successfully grow from seed? I've heard that it is a waste of time as they won't fruit? Can I purchase plants directly from you? From: ABERGOWRIE QLD
Yes you can grow Avocados from seed, but they will take from 5-10yrs to fruit and you are not always guaranteed a good fruiting variety. You can purchase direct from us. Here are some varieties that will be available soon. #DwarfAvocado1008 #AvocadoHass1001 http://www.daleysfruit.com.au/fruit%20pages/avocado.htm
Is this the grafted dwarf one.. When will it fruit... From: THURSDAY ISLAND QLD
Hass is grafted but it isn't a dwarf variety. Fruiting normally commences in the 3rd year.
Height of plant for sale From: NORTH RYDE NSW
The height of the plant is 3-4m instead of 5-12 like this one #AvocadoHass1001 You can keep it smaller by pruning it to size. The height of the tree that we sell will be about 60-90cm and in a 4litre bag.

Alice (Toowoomba) The small hard bits in the avo could be stings from the fruit spotting bug...as yet, no biological control. U could spray something nasty??? | Suzi - Alstonville, NSW 27-Nov-2008

Type A Avocados are the best for Southern Victoria, Hass will do very well. Just make sure you also have a type B for pollination but perhaps not Sharwill, it doesn't seem happy in the cold. Ettinger is the best pollinator for Hass but it wont fruititself | Jason - Portland, VIC 01-Jul-2010

A friend came over with their 2 year old son, and the young man snapped off the top of one of the two Avocado shoots. One died, and the other one that was topped off, shot right up! One year later, our only & lonely avocado has grown to over 2 1/2 feet! | Jamie Long - Oswego, NY 13-Jun-2011
