Grow this popular and great tasting avocado in your home garden, orchard or as a patio plant instead of buying them at the grocery store!
Most people think that avocado trees will only grow in tropical climates. The truth is if you pot them up as a patio plant, you can grow avocados anywhere in the country!
Avocados are healthy, packed with nutrients (vitamins A, B-6, C, E, niacin, folate, magnesium and riboflavin) and are sodium and cholesterol free.They contain 60% more potassium than bananas and are high in oleic acid,proven to reduce bad (LDL) cholesterol. They are great in salads, sandwiches and wonderful in a guacamole dip.
A single tree can produce up to 1,200 medium sized avocados annually. The fruit is identified by a dark green (ripening to purplish black), smooth, and thin edible rind. It is sometimes called the year-round avocado because of the long harvest season. Store fruit for up to six weeks in cool temperatures to extend the harvest. The fruit matures on the tree but ripens after it is picked, so delay picking and store in a cool place to provide avocados almost all year.
Mexicola Grande avocado grow into tall trees that are easy to care for needing little pruning. They are subtropical so they need temperatures above freezing. However, once established, this variety can tolerate more frost than other avocado varieties, to 20 degrees for very short periods.
This avocado originated in Mexico from a very large native species and has gotten very popular because of its taste, hardiness, easy care and high nutritional value.
Avocado trees prefer temporary shade when young to protect the trunk. After 2-3 years it will shade itself. After that it needs full sun to flower and fruit. To increase avocado production, plant another variety for cross-pollination.
Combine ripe fruit with lime juice, minced onion, fresh cilantro, a little bit of cayenne pepper and diced tomatoes for a nice guacamole dip!
I received my Avocado tree three days ago. It was packaged very nicely. It had lost a few leaves however I had a large pot and potting soils ready to plant it in. I put the pot in my bath tub which has a nice sunny window to winter over. I planted it and watered it with a couple drops of Super Thrive in a gallon of water. Today my tree is looking very healthy and happy! Very happy with my purchase! Thank you
