Description

Fuerte' is the original high quality California avocado with medium to large pear-shaped fruit and great taste. The smooth, thin, green skin peels easily. Creamy, pale green flesh surround a medium-sized seed. Dpes not produce well near the coast. Fruit ripens November-June. B-type. Frost tolerant to 28F.

Plant Care

Prefers to be planted in well-draining soil in a site that is protected from wind and frost. Water regularly during the first year to aid the plant in establishing a strong root system, frequency should be cut back once established. Fertilize in the early spring before the flowers emerge and remove dead wood and prune to maintain the desired size. In late Spring, thin out the crop to prevent early fruit drop and overbearing.
