Tall Avocado

This is the tallest of the volunteer avocado trees -- over two feet. It may be because it is unencumbered by growth from surrounding shrubs. Most of the others are fighting their way up from under, or alongside, other bushes.

  1. Hey great post. You should really consider potting a couple of those avocado plants and putting them in your sunniest window through winter. If for no other reason than to share with curious or interested folks who can't seem to generate them quite like you...(i.e. me). If you plan on digging them up I'll take one.

  2. I've definitely thought about doing that -- I need to move quickly before the roots get too deep for digging up. It's possible that if they made it through the winter indoors and could be transplanted early next year, that they might get big/strong enough to survive future winters. It's surely worth a try.
