Here’s the story about the Duke Avocado
Part 1:
Part 2:
As I have already mentioned, the best rootstock for our area is from the Duke Avocado Tree. The seedlings can tolerate well water high in boron and salts. I am suspecting the same for the Aravaipa so am excited to test them.
Fantastic/Pryor Avocado is green, paper thin skin, most cold hardy of all the Mexican avocados. The fruit
has a creamy texture with fantastic flavors. Eat skin and all. It is a vigorous growing beautiful tree. I am suspecting that the Fantastic avocado has similar genetics to Duke.
Brazos Belle or WIlma is also a cold hardy Mexican avocado. The fruit is large and has a very good flavor. The skin is black in color.
