Nishikawa
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)
Nishikawa is a Guatemalan type from Hawaii, and received recommendation from the University of Hawaii as both a potential commercial and backyard cultivar.
It is a medium sized, pear shaped fruit with yellow flesh and very high oil content and rich flavor. There are differing reports on the performance of this avocado in Florida.
Our tree has grown very slowly but has produced fruit.
Some of these ripened unevenly but the properly ripened ones were outstanding.
We look forward to evaluating it more in the future.
Nishikawa is a B-type flowerer and seems to be a fall avocado here.
Race: Guatemalan
Flower type: B
Country: Hawaii - USA
