Potted Hass Avocado Tree (starter tree)(Persea americana 'Hass')
First called an "Alligator Pear", the avocado was used as a hedgerow windbreak for citrus orchards in Southern California.
The Hass Avocado was a chance seedling discovered by Mr. Rudolph Hass.
Even though the plant was intended as rootstock for another popular variety of the time, his children so preferred the fruit that Rudolph patented it in 1935.
We understand why!
Once planted the Hass Avocado will produce fruit in about 5 years. So be patient, this is a fruit worth waiting for and don't wait too long to plant one.Worldwide, Hass is the most popular commercially-grown avocado.
Its durability in transport and reliable shelf life, make it a popular choice among growers and customers alike.
While you can generally find Avocados at the grocery store, it's such a treat to be able to grow your own.
You'll save money and gain a valuable, attractive plant for your backyard permaculture orchard.
