Avocado
We offer over 20 varieties of avocado trees! All of our trees are grafted, which means that you can get fruit faster than a tree grown from seed! If you were to grow your own avocado tree from seed, it would take 8 to 20 years for your tree to produce yummy avocados. Our grafted trees will start producing fruit in 1 to 2 years! You can read about each variety and their differences below. Click on the variety name to read more about each!
Avocados can also be grown as houseplants! To grow them inside, avocados require fast-draining soil. Only water your avocado tree once the soil is dry to the touch. These trees love bright light, so place them in a brightly lit area. Dwarf varieties are more successful, however indoor avocado trees are less likely to fruit.
