How To Pruning Avocado Trees For Low Branching And Small Size
Вставка
- Опубліковано 9 лют 2025
- This video will teach you techniques for pruning avocado trees to keep them small by encouraging low branching. The avocado tree in this video is a Type A semi dwarf avocado variety called a Lila Avocado and it is an ideal variety to grow in smaller yards and small spaces.
Pruning avocados is best done while the tree is young to achieve the desired shape early. Avocado pruning when young will allow the tree to recover quickly when they're most vigorous.
Because avocado trees grow in warm climates and are evergreen trees that lack a true dormancy period, when and how to prune avocado tree branches depends on your personal preferences.
The best tools for pruning avocado tree wood are sharp hand pruners for the smaller branches and a Japanese saw (AKA pull saw) to prune avocado branches larger than the width of your ring finger. Always clean your tools before pruning avocado plant material.
If you have any questions about how to prune an avocado tree, how to grow avocado trees, growing avocado trees in cold climates, the things I am growing in my garden, are looking for any garden tips and tricks, or have questions about gardening and organic gardening in general, please ask in the Comments below!

We are extremely grateful to you,for your comprehensive video. We will definitely follow your instructions,to prune our avocado trees,in Goa,a tropical region.Thank you for sharing.May GOD Bless you.
AT LAST ! ! ! Finally somebody who gives me an idea of the time between seed and harvest. Thank you so much. This is the most informative avocado video I've seen on UA-cam.
Great vid. You are one of the few creators who shows what happens over time. Usually the video would be just the cut then an explanation of what should happen. This is a great vid.
Thank you. A lot of my videos are staged over months. I have 4 or 5 long-term projects in the works right now.
@@TheMillennialGardener I appreciate your video. I have been curious about the Lila. Best vidio on showing how to keep the tree small. I wish someone would develop a true dwarf Avaçado that didn't grow over 5 or 6 ft tall. Thank you for your great video 👍🙏
@@kimhicks4781 He just did. lol. Seriously, pruning, in our lifetime, is undoubtedly the only real way to keep it as short as you want. However, you're correct that people and experts are ALWAYS experimenting to find THAT TREE that you mentioned. Whoever figures it out could make a lot of money. Farmers and homeowners alike are looking for that perfect short tree that has all the perfect characteristics.
I have a Lila avocado tree and am excited to see your video on how to prune it! I can’t wait for my new pruners to arrive today so I can get started. Thanks so much for the information how to do a proper pruning.
this a good tricks for Pruning avocado trees and so helpful, always sharing a nice information thanks
Thank you for watching!
Excellent detailed explanation about how to properly prune avocados trees! Thank you for sharing your knowledge and video!
So pleased I found this video. I want to grow avocados but I don’t want a giant tree shading off the entire garden and dumping tonnes of leaves. Great advice.
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching.
I transplanted my Lila Avocado tree from container to ground one week ago. Now thanks to you I will go out and prune it with lots more confidence. Thank you very much.
Thank you so much. So helpful. I've watched other videos on pruning avocados but none have given me courage to do it. Yours is so explanatory. Now I'll give it a go. I only want to keep ours small as well. Thanks again. Greetings from Australia.
Thank you. I couldn’t find one myself for pruning, so I decided to make one myself 😂 Glad it was helpful!
Thanks Millennial Gardener! Time to clean my pruning tools and try my hand at pruning my avocado tree.
You’re welcome! Thanks for watching!
Thank you for this clear and simple explanation of pruning, thank you for before and after pictures, you are simply the best for me.
The knowledge you are imparting here is invaluable, it's a great reference for home gardeners. Thank you from California. Hello to Dale.
Great video, I would however add that moon cycles are important when pruning your plants. Never prune near or during full moons as the salvia of the plant is all in its branches. Near or during new moons the salvia is found in the roots making it ideal for pruning. This is something many don't consider when tending to there plants. Knowledge of moon cycles is imperative for tending to all of your plants needs.
Live in 9a, Bought a Lila avocado tree this year after I saw your first video, planted in a large container and my plan is that once we move to plan it in the ground. Learning a lot from you keep up the great work
Congrats! You're going to love the tree. Thanks for watching!
Where did you buy your Lila from. I am in Southern California and haven't seen growers that stocks them. Makes me wonder why. I haven't see a profile on the Lila so don't know how heavy a producer it is or if it produces every year and has a lot of fruit or not. Good luck with your tree
@@kimhicks4781 - I'm in North California and looking at Lila info it appears to be an East Coast tree along with the Joey which is a B. Both are are cold hardy but i think they aren't allowed to be shipped to California due to concerns about various bugs and diseases that might come with them. But i'd sure like to get a Joey.
Thank you for this video! So many videos that are not helpful or say to not trim them until they are years old. I will use these tips! Thank you!
Incredibly helpful seeing the timeline and recovery after the big cuts! Thank you for such an informative video
thank you nice to listen to somebody that knows his stuff
I appreciate that! Thank you for watching!
Awesome video! Loved getting to see the recovery post pruning.
This is the most helpful video I have ever watched. Thank you
This is fantastic and so helpful. Thank you ❤️.
Thank you! I'm glad to hear you enjoyed it.
I am happy to see your video on trimming a tree, i always afraid to cut the top of a tree because I am afraid that the tree is destroyed you gave me the courage to cut the top of my fig and pomegranate tree thank you
Born in San Diego my grandfather had 2-beautiful avocado trees and they quit fruiting. He decided to take a pipe up the middle of the trees with a simple sprinkler head attached to the top and that did the trick and from then on the trees produced more fruit than he ever expected.
That's a good tip. I just purchased our 1st avocado tree. We live in Vista, CA
Water is the key
Yes overhead sprinkler watering is used by a lot of producers in Australia and NZ
Great idea ! Thank you.
Extremely well explained.
Always impressed with your logic and methodic definitions in your videos.
Super jealous of your ability to speak so clearly without a single "uh" or "um".
Superior information sir.
Thank you for your efforts ☮️
Alan Robley I edit out the uh’ sand um’s. Believe me, sometimes I have to repeat the sentence 2-3 times because I get tongue-tied. Some days are better than others. I’m glad you find the videos helpful. I appreciate that a lot.
I'm in Washington State
In zone 8A
I've got several potted avocado trees that I bring in in the winter but I've never considered making a permanent spot outside.
Your information obviously shows that it can be done.
Super excited to try thank you sir!
@@O_U_No_It_2 bear in mind I'm in a very warm Zone 8a, so while our temps can get cold at night, when the sun rises, we usually shoot into the 50's and 60's quickly. If you rebound quickly in the AM, you may be okay. I have a video on how I protect them here: ua-cam.com/video/zYehs-1f7a8/v-deo.html
Perfect timing, I am planning to prune my avocado dwarf varieties , thanks for sharing your knowledge 👌 ☘🌱🌴🍃🌿🌲
Which dwarf varieties are you growing?
Absolutely wonderful explanation to pruning and it's advantages. I am growing one indoors, it's only about a foot tall, but, I am enjoying it. You are appreciated for taking your time to share this valuable information for all to learn.
Glad it was helpful! Thank you for watching!
Hello Ma'am. How big is your avocado now? ☺️
@@francisverdadero3417 the tree died.
Did you grow another one?
@@francisverdadero3417 not as of yet, got down over it and replaced the empty space with a lemon and a coffee plant, lol. But, I will attempt it a second time. Have not seen avocados at the supermarket, weird. thanks for asking and may you enjoy the beautiful day.
VEry well explained. I know nothing about gardening, but after watching this video I am ready to start my Avocado farm.
Seriously, Good job man. Very informative and enjoyable presentation.
Glad it was helpful! I'm happy to hear that. Thank you for watching.
I LOVED THE INFORMATION YOU GAVE ..ITS JUST WHAT I NEEDED...AVOCADO SEEDS ARE ALWAYS GROWING IN MY YARD....I HAVE 4 AND THEIR BEAUTIFUL..I NEED IT SMALL
I'm glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching!
wonderful video, very informative and easy to follow instructions, thank you
That tidbit about apical dominance was great information! Thanks for sharing :)
I have an avocado tree that fell down during a hurricane last year. I cut it down about 5 feet to where it had cracked. It’s been about 6 months and is already regrown from the middle of the trunk. It’s about the size of your tree. It’s amazing. I need to prune it so it won’t grow into the house.
I had no idea avocado trees were this vigorous before I grew my own. After I pruned the tree in this video, I had to cut it back again 2 months later! They're very forgiving. If you make a mistake, they'll recover quickly. Thanks for watching!
Like others, i liked showing before, during and after. I'm in North California, got a Lamb, Gem, Wurz, Stewart, Hass, Zutano and a Sharwil, but half of those are "fingers crossed" in this sometimes 9A/B zone. I'l love to get a Lila and a Joey. Your Lila looks great. Keep up the good work.
Awesome! Very informative and educated video. We enjoyed every steps how you pruned your tree and why you needed to do certain way. Thank you for taking your time showing us also the result after pruning.
Thank you! I'm glad you found the video helpful. Thank you for watching!
Very timely video, i am thinking of ways on how i can grow my avocado in ways that i will not have a difficult time to harvest the fruits. Your suggestions on pruning really cleared the matter for me, sir. Thanks.
Best video I've seen on pruning. Thanks.
Thank you! Glad it was helpful!
Great vdo, thank you very much from Thailand
I am a new subscriber and just finished watching a few of your videos. You managed to give me so much information without losing me. Everything was very well explained and I was excited to see that you can grow a type of avocado in North Carolina. What is the taste and texture like? I was born and raised in Southern California. I have two avocado trees. One was huge until it got pruned this year. I stopped counting the avocados picked at 726. The other tree, I keep low and am surprised I haven't killed it by the way I was trimming to try and Preserve the ocean view. I even bungee down some of the branches. Interesting that the tree I keep low always has large Hass avocados. The taller tree that goes wild has much smaller fruit, larger seed and thinner skin. They are both hass grafted with fuerte. Both are buttery and creamy tasting but the tall tree with the smaller avocados, taste just a little better.
I thought about moving from Southern California but I don't think I could survive without my avocado trees. It's no joke!
I'm in Anaheim. Where about are you in the OC? Do you know how old your two trees are - when they were planted? The tall tree, how many feet tall do you think it is? So, now you have 1 Fuerte and 1 Hass?
@@ocnealocneal6549 I am in the Southbay , about a 15 minute drive from where the cliff just crumbled. I have two Haas trees. I believe they’re grafted with Fuerte so they’ll produce every year. The only reason one of my trees is short is because I try to keep my view open. Both of my trees are on each corner of the backyard and they’re both covering the ocean view but, that’s how much I love avocados. I planted them about 25 years ago and I do try to trim the tall one out of courtesy for my neighbors so I don’t block their view but it is still about 30 to 35 feet tall. I made a big mistake this year and trimmed it myself when it was loaded with avocados. the avocados are still there but I think it’s stunted their growth because they’re the same size as they were a few months ago. There are hundreds, but I may end up with a giant seed and little fruit. The other tree has large avocados but they take a long time to ripen and in the meantime, the squirrels enjoy them immensely.
I was recently reading that the price of avocados are going to continue to come down, because so many people invested in avocado groves, and now that they are maturing in producing, there’s a lot of competition .
@@ocnealocneal6549 I just Skimmed some other articles, and it seems the information I gave you is not quite correct. Right now there is an over abundance of avocados and the price is expected to stay low through the next year.
Thanks for a very valuable information on pruning AVOCADO !!!
You're welcome! Thank you for watching!
Excellent work very best, I'm trying to grow an avocado forest at my farm in India, thank you so much for a knowledgeable video, thanks a lot 🤝🤗
WONDERFUL video. Just bought a Haas, living in zone 10a in California. I would like to keep my tree smaller & possibly buy another. I heard that having at least 2 will maximize my yield... Especially if I wanna keep the tree smaller.
Your grass looks pretty green too!😀
Thank you so very much for such a caring & compassionate way to do it. i already subscribed & hope to watch more of your fantastic & educational videos . we need more sensitive & caring people like you . kind regards Ben from down under 🙂
Keep up the good work mate.
Thank you! i plan to plant an avocado in ground in 8a next week. This is exactly the information I was looking for.
Be very careful. If you do not meticulously monitor the weather and protect it, it won't survive. All you have to do is neglect to protect it on one night and it can be killed. It is possible, but you'll have to be religious with your protection methods, and if you ever decide to vacation during the winter, you'll have to be prepared with some way of protecting things.
@@TheMillennialGardener Thank you for the tips. Luckily my mom, who also gardens, lives just a mile from our house so help is nearby if we ever are out of town. We're trying the Fast Growing Trees cold hardy avocado that claims to survive down to 20, though I plan to protect it long before. My husband is a Miami Cuban who grew up with an avocado tree in his yard and he's desperate for fresh avocados! He wants us to try mamey, but I don't know that we can get it to work out without a whole lot of work.
I just brought a Lila Avocado. I will follow your concept makes much sense. Thank you for sharing. New sub today.
watching from Fiji 7.17 pm thanks vinaka
Thank you for watching!
Excellent video. Thank you. I have a 9 year old avocado in Phoenix zone 10 that I grew from the pit. It struggles in summer lol. I thought I’d lost it this summer. All the leaves burned and fell off. And then! Miracle! As temps cooled, it sprouted lots of new growth. I just pruned it but after watching your video, I’m thinking it needs a bit more. Not sure I’ll ever get fruit. But it’s fun to grow my little tree that came from a pit.
So any updates lol.
Nice technically managed low branching pruning method....I like it sir...
Thank you! I appreciate it. It's time to give it another haircut.
One of the best videos on avocado growing I've seen. You might also want to check out the Rincon avocado variety which has a naturally low-growing, spreading habit and is cold tolerant down to 29 degree F.
Thank you! This one avocado is enough for me because it’s a bit of work protecting it, but if I ever move further south one day, I would want to add a second for sure. They’re beautiful trees.
thanks for the great Lila avocado videos and want to continue to see how Lila fares in the future in zone 8a being a tree only for 8b+ and being pruned heavily, I learned my lesson avocados do not produce when heavily pruned, it takes many years to recover, all they will want to do is grow new leaves, not flower because the leaves need to be heavy to produce fruit, with a heavy canopy, i heard that avocados do not like to be pruned and won't flower or fruit because they may take 2 years or more after pruning to flower again. the dilemma with avocados is contrary to other deciduous trees if you prune you don't get fruit! I don't prune my avocados anymore I learned it interferes with good fruit production you will have to wait even longer for the free to recover and produce more fruit, I have a 20 yr mexicola Grande that I pruned the heck out of like yours, after it got to 20 ft, at 5 yrs old, and it never did produce much after that, however this year it has about 40 avocados this year and is a forced dwarf that is trying to regrow this time I'm going to let it grow naturally, its now 8 ft tall, and growing heavily upward, I also have in zone 9a 20 yr old wurtz that's 12-14 ft tall, with heavy canopy, 30-50 avocados, and newly planted gwen, reed, lamb hass, Jim bacon, bacon, holiday, all growing in the ground in zone 9a ( our lowest temp this winter of 2020/2021 was 29 degrees for 1-2 hours in the morning and I didn't even have to cover the new avocado planting i found the Lila videos informative about experimental growth of avocado in a warmest microclimate in a marginal/ and colder than normal growing zone Liked your Lila avocado so much i bought one also from. The same place, I hope mine in the mail now is the same size I'm planning to grow it in the ground I'm in inland empire, los angeles i originally saw snow in your yard and said avocados growing in the snow?
It is a practical & very informative video! Mine is Hass Avocado from the U.S. market imported from Mexico. It's a year old now & it grows beautifully. I've got a remarkable idea from you. Thanks!!
Glad it was helpful! I will have another big pruning update within in the next 2 weeks, so be sure to stay tuned on the channel. The tree has grown much larger, so it should help you as your tree grows.
Excellent video. Very educational as you showed the results after pruning. I am now encouraged to prune my avocado tree without fear👍
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching and best of luck! Just remember, if you make a mistake, they recover very quickly.
Hi millennial gardener, I'm a gen x gardener And love avocado trees so much, its my favorite fruit tree, but hate having to hand water Them and paying 90+ dollars per month, for water in the summer here to keep them alive, I have a House that looks like a fruit tree farm no grass just fruit trees, 100+ fruit trees all crowded in on 1/5 acre. California does not get rain in summer, avocado trees are thirsty trees! I have 10+ Avocado trees growing in Ground in my yard, they are mostly mexican, Mexican Guatemalan hybrids, and Guatemalan, No west Indies, types, holiday, wertz lamb hass, reed, mexicola grande, bacon, zutano, lila, poncho, gwen, jim bacon. I liked your Lila videos so much that I bought a grafted Lila from planto gram 130$ including shipping?Very expensive because I can buy 5 gallon avocado many different varieties For 35$ here at home depot, but we don't have the Texas cold hardy avocados at home depot here. I tried to find it elsewhere but seems this company has a Sort of monopoly on mail order Lila avocados as I could not find it anywhere else online and was disappointed because it arrived only 3 ft tall with only 1 inch trunk,Maybe 2/3 the size of your tree when it arrived, planted my Lila avocado here in inland los Angeles in may 2021 in the ground and it has survived one day at 108 degrees and 20+ days over 100 degrees and has started to grow new leaves about a month after i planted it In june, i have it on a mound 4 ft wide by 1.5 feet tall, on a drip irrigation With only single water drops near the trunk on the rootball, it gets 1 hour of water drops as do all my other trees but I have to hand water because its not enough at over 85 degrees which we are experiencing the hottest June ever in California, im in zone 9a i really think im in zone 9b , though because it very rarely goes below 25 in the winter maybe 2 days in the last 20 years? Im In inland Los Angeles.
Nice to see your video about pruning avocado tree.....Iam from Bali, Indonesia🥑🥑🥑
Thanks for watching from so far away!
Really helpful explanation! I am in zone 10, but prefer to keep my plant lower as well.
If I were in Zone 10, I'd have an avocado forest 😆 I prefer my fruits where I can harvest them better than the birds and squirrels, so I always try and keep my trees very low for that reason. Thanks for watching!
pengetahuan yang anda berikan sungguh bermanfaat.
Excellent explanation 👍👍👍
Very well explained and illustrated, avocado tree is very resilient.
It has recovered nicely. Hopefully, we have another mild winter! Thanks for watching.
Very very helpful so happy I found your channel
Amazing teaching! It is the first time that I understand how to prune a fruit tree not to grow that tall. I looked at other videos before and could not fully grasp it. Thanks you!
I try my best to be clear and explain why I'm doing what I'm doing. I'm glad it was helpful. Thanks for watching!
Are you growing an avocado tree? What varieties are you growing? Let us know in the comments below!
Yes I'm growing 15 haas avocado trees in zone 9a. Only 3 are in ground and have been protected through winter with a forest floor. The other 12 are in my greenhouse. All but 1 were grown from seed and are growing well. (1 to 2 ft tall) thanks for sharing this video. Thats a beautiful tree. Ill be using this technique when my trees are big enough for pruning.
Mo De wow that’s a lot of trees! Are you going to add a pollinator variety?
@@TheMillennialGardenerit was not intentional..after a series of guacamole dips and avocado meals, I had a ton of seeds and wanted to increase the chance that I got at least 1 but all of them grew lol. Im a new gardener so I didn't know I needed another variety for pollination. Which do u recommend?
Mo De ah, I forgot they were seed grown. Fruit trees don’t grow true to type, so although you have planted 12 Haas avocado pits, none of the trees will be a Haas. Each seed will be an entirely new, unique variety, just like every egg inside ovaries will produce a unique child different than the mother. So, you’ll have 12 unique trees, just like if a mother had 12 children, they would all be unique. So, likely, some will be Type A and some will be Type B and pollinate each other.
Believe it or not, but every Haas avocado tree on earth is a clone. All originated from a single tree that some farmer selected as a worthy variety. Each tree is identical. Same goes for every other named fruit. Take a red delicious apple. Only one ever grew from a seed, and someone took it and cloned it a million times over from cutting wood. That goes for any “named” fruit.
@@TheMillennialGardener thx! For this new info. thats going to be very interesting. I know it will be years before any fruit appears, hopefully they produce. I have noticed so far that some are green stem but most are burgundy. The green produced a double main root and double main stem. Like 2 trees from one seed. I followed the exact same process during germination (soaked in water until root formation then potted in soil with a glass jar covering each seed until stem formation for a mini greenhouse effect) -with 100% success. No other method worked for me. I'll be following your channel for advice along the way. Thx for the great content and for responding.
Than mmm you for Sharing your Ideas
Thanks for watching!
Great video. I appreciate your following up and showing new growth after pruning 👍

It's really nicely explained
Thanks for watching!
Finally,,u nailed it sir now I know wat to do with my avo tree, I was so scared that I won't b able to control its height 😅
You definitely can. The key is to start pruning early in the tree's life to establish a strong form that's low to the ground. Then, you simply cut it back each season as necessary.
Love the video, and especially the side-by-side updates. Thank you! New sub!
Thanks for the sub! I appreciate it!
very Nice👍

Thanks for subbing! I appreciate it!
Such a beautiful tree!
Thank you!
Excellent clear presentation! Thank you so much!
Really helpful video. I inherited an avocado of unknown origin that is 6’ tall and never been pruned, and very gangly. I will cut it down to inspire new lower fruiting branches without fear based on your advice.
My tree grew back so quickly it is crazy. I have to prune it again shortly. Don't fear pruning your tree. Avocados are vigorous growers.
salamat sa sharing
Great information sir
Thanks for watching!
Thanks for this very valuable info on pruning avocados. Our trees grow so high i have to get the young kids to climb or just wait till the fruit drops.very much appreciated
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching.
Very helpful, thanks.
You're welcome! Thanks for watching.
Profound presentation, thanks for sharing...
Thanks for watching!
It is September 6 here in central FL and I am going to prune my avocado the same way you did. My avocado has been in the ground for a year and is about 6 ft. tall and it is real bushy so first I will have to take out some in the middle and then I plan to trim the big main branches so it will fruit lower. I fertilize all my fruit trees every month but I use less fertilizer every time because I think it is better for the 40 trees of different kinds in my back yard on 1 1/2 acre. Wish me luck.
Best of luck! I just heavily pruned my tree last week in the same way, and I'll have a video up on it shortly. Hope yours went well.
Very good tutorial.. I have a few avocado tree at home.I like to apply it.
Thanks for watching!
Beautiful video thank you
Thanks for watching! Glad it was helpful.
I'm jealous of that dog. I haven't tasted a Coll de Dame fig ever.
Dale gets only the best! 😀 Col de Dame's are becoming pretty common. It's pretty easy to find Col de Dame cuttings and trees on Figbid these days and they can be had for reasonable prices.
@@TheMillennialGardener I'm waiting for my Coll de Dame Noir to set some figs!
Should be receiving my very first successful CDD Rimada rooted cutting soon, since I ruined my own rooting.
Thank you for sharing
Thanks for watching!
Beautiful job my friend!
Thank you! I appreciate you watching.
Killer avocado 😂😂😂 Good info Bro Thanks 🍻🍻
Thanks for watching!
Very informative. Thank you. I'm about to plant a Hass avocado tree. I'm 9b. I have some physical issues and don't want my tree to be too big. This explained pruning very well. Not only how to prune but why. Thank you.
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching!
Wow man I'm intrigued about the avocado tree. We need a Lila tree or some other semi dwarf for my yard. I'm in zone 9a about 3 miles off the Gulf Coast as the crow flies. I like that little hoop house thing you made for it👍. I've been putting off getting one because that would probably the most expensive tree in my yard. Differently need to talk the wife into one though if we have room especially at the prices of fresh avocados nowadays😁👍 !!!
thank you & i do learned a lot...

Great video with correct information!
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching!
I appreciate you documenting the progression all within the same video (as opposed to part 1,2,3, etc). How important is it to .... use a saw for thicker branches? Can I use any kind of serrated blade such as a bread knife? (semi serious question)
