Dwarf Avocado - Wurtz (A) (Grafted) ^8/10

Comments: - Hard trees to get established - starting to do well now after a couple of years in the ground.  Literally planted by placing on top of the soil and mounding around it with a mixture of potting mix and compost.  Also, are growing temporary shade trees around it to provide partial shade for the young avocado in its first few years.  I feel this has made a big difference to the success of growing avocados after a couple of early failures.  Good Luck!
