Taste, season, cold, and how to plant this one.
- Taste
- A compact Florida avocado with good, mild flesh and a tree that fits a smaller lot better than Russell or Pollock.
- Ripens
- A later Florida season, often fall. Ripen picked fruit indoors.
- Zones
- Zones 10 to 11.
- Hardiness
- Suited to Southwest Florida. Cover it the first winters while the graft is still thin.
- Size
- Smaller than the giant Florida avocados, which is the point. Still leave 15 to 20 feet.
- Tips
- Useful where a Choquette would swallow the yard. Same planting rule: mound, mulch, graft above the soil.
- Pollination
- Sets better with a second avocado of the other flower type.
