Very inspiring stoney! Do you have a good idea of how well they tolerate cooler drier temps once established? keep up the good work
Very nice indeed Stoney, thanks for the update and keep it up!
Thank you all. I'm in florida which is fairly humid. Cold they do not like a bit. I read that they stop growing when it gets below about 70f. I bring them in when it gets below about 55. Considering that these were all sprouted around the early part of the year, i'm lucky one tried to flower. I think, or hope, that i'll see a bunch of growth and lots of flowers in the spring. Then of course those seed pods. I may try rooting cuttings in the summer after they are done setting seed. I heard they were a little hard to root but it can be done. There is always air layering. OT but i was told by a gardener that avocado trees are the hardest to propagate. They wont take air layering. Grafting on a different plant does not work either. One thing that works is grafting a small branch from a mature tree onto an avocado seedling. The advantage is the plant is mature much faster and will set fruit.
