IMPORTANT READ BEFORE Make your Grafting Request Order
We are only able to graft twice a year, Late Spring & Late Summer.
- If we receive the order between after September 24th and before May 1st, The trees will be grafted in Spring & should be ready by the end of the year.
- For orders made after May 01st and before of September 24th will be grafted in late Summer and should be ready in the Spring following year, May most likely.
Only Once the small tree has completed two flushes of growth since it was grafted do we consider it ready to leave our nursery.
(Estimated time is 6 to 8 months. Some varieties take longer time to growth)
Ironically enough, Florida Hass isn?t from Florida at all; its actually from California, where it was a seedling part of a research program.
It was brought to Florida by the Zill family where it was later given its name.
The fruit does resemble the traditional ?Hass? but doesn?t turn black, remaining green at maturity. The flesh is pale colored, and very rich, creamy and nut flavored.
A delightful avocado for us, though many people growing it in Florida have had poor luck with internal issues and production problems, so we can?t recommend it.
The fruit ripens in the fall here, typically from October through November.
The tree produces A-type flowers.
