This is an unknown seedling variety, and it has been in for about 9 years. It finally flowered this year, but unfortunately the 2 fruit that I thought would hold, fell off. I'm hoping that a few will stay on next time.

Being a seedling tree, it grows very fast, but it's a great shade tree.

I have 4 avocados.......and all are mulched really well with sugarcane mulch which they love, as they have fine feeder roots just under the soil, and this keeps them nice and moist.

Planted: 2002

Height 4 metres

Growing: In the Ground

Qty: 1

Sun/Shade: Medium Sun

Pollination: Cross Pollination

Fertiliser or Organics Used: compost, horse manure, blood and bone and mulch.

Pest Control:

Anthracnose has been a problem with this one too, but I haven't sprayed yet as it hasn't flowered.

Who knows what this one is?. It came up in my friend Mark's compost and it's pretty so I kept it. Probably won't fruit for 10 years but I am a patient woman! :O)

Very thirst. The new growth droops very visibily so you can tell when it needs a drink.

Quite vigorous and the stems and branches seem quite juicey rather than woody.

Pollination: No

Fertiliser or Organics Used: Charlie Carp, Seasol, Dynamic Lifter, Blood and Bone, worm jouce (in rotation)
