Fall update, Nov 18 20242024-11-19 01:14:14Put on some nice new growth, as you can see in the photo
Photo update, 5/22/242024-07-06 22:36:14Lil tree is growing well. Something was nibbling at the youngest leaves but that hardly slowed it down. There are some dead leaves, possibly from leaf burn when they came out of the greenhouse? There are also tiny brown spots on the lower, older leaves but they were already present when I picked up the plant from Winn. Does not appear to be harmful, at least not yet. Planted it close to an arctic kiwi (actinidia arguta). Apparently they like the same growing conditions. I'm wondering if the kiwi will help the avocado not freeze to death so easily? Maybe? Stay tuned :)
Frost update2023-12-08 19:30:03Slight to moderate damage to new leaves, older leaves mostly look ok with flecks of cellular damage.
This tree does not have any grafts on it.
