  • How to Grow An AVOCADO TREE in the DESERT of ARIZONA
    • Video
    This Avocado Tree is over 100 years old and was planted in around the early 1900's! I planted grafted scions of this tree in my yard 2 years ago. The grafted grand babies of this mother tree were 1.5 feet tall when I planted them and now they are over 12 feet tall! Here's the avocado tree planting video: • Avocado 🥑 Trees 🌳 in B...
    This year the avocado trees I planted flowered for the first time! Next year I'm hoping for fruit! When I'm able to harvest my own avocados from my backyard garden then I will gain 50 pounds for sure! ;) www.JakeMace.com

    I loved this video! Just like with people, it's so interesting to see the roots (punny!) of where plants come from. I love plants and the idea of gardening, I have a black thumb and nothing is safe around me. But I used to love helping my mom in her veggie garden and miss the amazing food it would produce.

      Jennifer Somebody You can do it, it is okay...fails happen but oh that home grown tomato for breakfast or veggies for dinner from your garden can not be compared. Jake has a monthly seed box subscription... I love the first days on every month!!! Just waiting for it to show up.... maybe try Basil plant from market up in the kitchen window sill... or Try tomato plant in larger pot outside
      just to start, learn to make compost in a plastic trashcan just start on journey... You can do it, its in your blood... lol your Mom did it. For me it was my great-grand mother from Texas that had the green thumb. ;) All the best.

    Wow, that is south of Globe, love that area! I've been wanting to spend more time there... if anyone has not driven from Phoenix to Globe... wow, what a gorgeous drive that is, I highly recommend taking that trip!
    Regarding who "owned" that tree.... I would say the Natives, likely the San Carlos Apaches, before I would say the Mexicans, any day. That comment about their ignorance of the history is cringeworthy, guys, come on! But, I appreciate all the other wisdom you have to share!
    Arizona was part of Mexico, but Mexico never really had a stronghold of what is now the US Southwest and apparently one of the problems during the short era just after they gained independence from Spain and befoe the US made their move for the area, they had to deal with resistance from the Natives who were defending their land, and don't quote me on this, but there were more US Americans moving into that region than were actual Mexicans during that time, and the Native population was a lot higher than it is now (I think)... some say that this former northern area of Mexico never really belonged to Mexico, they were still fighting for it, just not from Spain, but the natives... it's just that this is how the U.S. recognized "ownership" of the region, and had it not been for the US wanting it, it might have taken another 20 years or more for Mexico to actually populate it and be able to defend it's borders and either come to peace with the natives or continue with their suppression, and apparently the Mexicans, even though many of them were part natives themselves, they were of different Native nations and probably did not exactly identify themselves as such anyways and probably identified themselves as being more Spanish (but, I could be wrong about that)... apparently, the Mexicans were not necessarily "nice" to the natives of what is now the US Southwest. The mainstream narritive seems to stress that Mexico could not afford war with the US after their war for independence from Spain... but, regardless, the US did display agression and did end up purchasing much of the lands, but at exploitively low cost... but, these are all reasons why they did not put up too much of a fight for the area, there is always a bigger picture to consider and I have no doubt that there is much more to the history than I am aware of ... I don't know how much it is recognized in mainsteam history teachings nowadays about the Native resistance to the Mexicans, but I think particularly the Apaches, were a big factor in the lack of effort Mexico made to try to protect it's borders. So the Native Nations of our South West got stuck with the US...not sure how today's natives feel today about that ultimate outcome, but, interestingly, I have a friend who was a tour guide and loves the Native cultures and she has told me about some tours where the Natives (not sure which nation, they don't like being called tribes) won't let Mexicans on certain tours, to this day, but they love the gringo tourists. We are not all bad!!! I was surprised to hear that, at any rate.
    This is what has been reported... I wasn't there and have not reviewed all available historical accounts and evidence.

    @gardengainzz9191 5 років тому +1

    Only on the Mexican varieties, have the anise smell when you crush to the leaves. You wouldn't want to use the leaves on a Guatemalan variety, as they are poisonous. This would make this old tree a Mexican variety and Mexican varieties are hardier than Guatemalan.

    That was the same with a Macadamia tree that my grandparents on my dads side had growing here :- www.google.com.au/maps/@-28.5116727,153.4041364,3a,75y,312.97h,101.34t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1seWcPHFdRyeA4P_APq5js8w!2e0!7i13312!8i6656?hl=en-gb
    They are native to the east coast of Australia up on the New South Wales/Queensland border so they grow in more of a humid subtropical climate,it's a bit different to Arizona which may have a climate which is a bit more like Lightning Ridges climate as it is more of an arid area as it is much further inland.
    I don't know if the tree was there before my grandparents built there in 1950 but they grew Lady finger bananas there as they were in partnership with another family & their bananas went right across the country,my grandfather died just before his 98th birthday last August whereas my grandmother is too old & weak to look after herself now,she's stuck in a nursing home now at about 85 years of age,its amazing how my grandfather on my mothers side is doing better than her after alcohol abuse,having a stroke & 2 heart attacks,he lives by himself & is 89 at the end of this May.
    My grandmother on that side left him in 1987 & died of cancer a month before her 77th birthday in 2006.
    My dad has a 16 year old Macadamia nut tree which is the child of his fathers old tree,I have 4 x seedlings growing in pots which are the grandchildren of their old tree,I scooped a couple out of underneath my dads tree at Xmas in 2016 which I potted but one of them died due to the hot summer heat (it got up to 47 degrees celsius back then),the other one I still have in a pot along with 3 other seedlings that I sprouted which are from the seed of my dads tree,I soaked some viable seeds in water for 24 hours & potted them at winter time,it took ages for them to germinate as even in late September (Spring),they hadn't yet germinated, it wasn't until about November that they sprouted,others that I planted didn't !!!!
    Hopefully, I'll be able to plant them in the ground this year, I may plant them in larger pots before I do I don't know but I will have to provide them with wind & sun protection at this stage until they get older !!!!
    I do have to test to see whether the soil they will go into is clay soil or not as I watched this video :- ua-cam.com/video/Q_kBsMpHHkA/v-deo.html
    where a Brisbane nursery suggests digging the hole then filling it with water,if the water soaks in after 1-2 hours,then the soil is o.k.,if not it is clay soil meaning the soil needs to be mounded up before the tree is planted.
    I have a couple of Hass avocado trees which have sprouted from store bought avocado seed,one is still pushing through & I'm not sure what stage the other 5 seeds are at,what I needed to know is how to determine the type of soil which I'll plant the trees into so they won't die of root rot,in clay soils, a lot of tropical fruit trees usually need to be mounded up as the tap root penetrating the clay kills the tree when the weather is really wet !!!!
    Where I live is meant to be humid subtropical,well,my dad came home from seeing his mother & he thinks the climate has ended up being more like it is there,yet their summer rainfall is about double ours so that's what the main difference is,ours is a bit strange as I'd assume that it's more like Charleston in South Carolina but their average winter temperature is a few degrees lower than ours !!!!

    This is very very little tree compared to our linden that we have in our garden. Plus under our linden there are burried soldiers from the First World War. Our tree was planted in 1843. The tree is protected by our government as Memorable tree, so everything that happens to the tree is financed and taked care by our government. But this tree is also amazing, I was just wondering if you have also protection to the trees by your government or not :-)
