My fellow ex Brooklynite, I really enjoy your videos and watching our shared obsession with collecting fruit trees. My current in the ground avocado trees are Brogdon, Catalina, Thompson Red, Marcus Pumpkin, Nishikawa, Maria Black, OohLaLa, Utuado, Simmonds, and Donnie. The most productive tree in my zone 10a yard is the Utuado . All of my avocado trees were planted from 3 gallon size pots and have been planted less than 3 years.
Thank you for sharing about what you are growing. Always good to hear and learn
how big are your trees that are in the ground?
Thanks for the informative tour of your yard Paul
Love you’re shirt!! ✝️✝️✝️
Me too.
Hi Paul. I do not know my variety, but the fruits mature between mid-August and September! Creamy and really good!
Thank you, you always step something very clear and upholding, always successful
Aww pinto running around in the back, so cute!
i enjoy your videos and happy avocado growing as i will grow my own avocadoes as well
Thanks for the video. Loved it
Really like the video . The avocado season in South Florida starts in July with Donnie and some Simmons and the late ones beeing Monroe , kampong and Ronnie the one you got from Lara being the latest one ripening from late February till April.
Thank you. That's very helpful.
The avocados in the store have also gone through high heat baths to kill anything on it or in the fruit and also being frozen to ship. Not to mention being picked very early. Any fruit in the store is better for you and more tastier to grow at your house, even if it’s something you can get anywhere. But I’m sure you already know this Paul
Totally
Great information
Great video, what exactly is Top Working? Im guessing you cut off the top of the mature tree and graft a different variety onto the existing wood? How exactly is it done? Id love to see a video on that. I have a 15 year old pinkerton i believe that i got from Excalibur and the fruit is not good was going to pull it out but if i can use the root stock for a more desirable variety might keep it. Also how was the fruit from Oro negro? Have s small one growing in a pot
My Simmonds are ready around mid August in Port saint Lucie and there creamy as can be.
Would you please put the avocado tree variety's names in the SHOW MORE section of this video so we can look them up with correct spelling?
Do you know a resource where we can look up the growing season of avocado varieties to pick carefully to extend our fruit season? Where do you look up which trees are type A and which type B for pollination planning?
We have a local green ripe avacado with a smaller seed. Then we have many types of ripe when purple.
I love your shirt❤
You're missing out on the Long neck Russell Avocado
Awesome video! Great lookin trees. Lucky guy. Do you know if that maria tree is a or b?
How interesting that avocados ripen best off the tree! Our avocado tree is so tall and so loaded with avocados that I never thought we would need to be concerned about when to pick them. Do you harvest them when they're still hard or just before they're ready to eat?
when they are hard and it will take about one or two weeks to ripen
Paul thank you for the video.
And what is the best time to graft the avocado. I tried unsuccessfully many times at summer, late spring
What time of the year worked for you such successfuly?
I'm still learning what the best time is
Avacados is what I am interested in, How about the Lila. Will it grow in S. California. Also how about the Maria Black for Çalifornià and the Monroe. How tall do they grow. Thanks for showing.👍
We have a Florida Haas which might actually be a Super Haas according to your description. It's about 6 years old and has never been a great producer until this year. Ironically, our mangoes aren't having a banner year.
Lots of mango trees are having a disappointing year here in florida. Mine and my neighbors man go trees are doing about half what they usually would in Sarasota and I know of a local orchard that about half of their trees died in the last cold
Enjoyed your video! Baby you watched Gary Gragg’s you tube Chanel on avocados? A lot of informative stuff. What kind of avocado is the one you transplanted with a tree bark with one shoot coming out? You can remember all their names! Amazing!! I have a fuerte, and Reed that I cloned. Took several months experimenting! Will follow you! Thanks!!
you must be in CA. Reed or Fuerte don't do too well here
@@FruitfulTrees yes I live in the SF Bay Area. We have a short growing season here but I always have a way to cheat the system. It’s a challenge that brings rewards! We have a large variety of avocados here.
My best young avo *tree* was Reed but I should have topped it, was looking top heavy late summer, ultra dense foliage plus rain and storm winds broke 3" trunk less than 2ft off the ground last fall, wacked, expect it to come back with a vengeance but a big set back.
Was wondering if your oro negro is producing more.i am getting around sixty or more a year it is exploding with fruit the last few years .
it looks like it's going to be a great year
Hello I moved to South Florida 2 years ago, I would like your opinion on what 3 Avacado trees I can plant to have Avacados all year long. Taking into consideration I dislike watered down Avacados. Thank you.
This website has good information on the seasons for avocados and their taste. www.tropicalfruitnursery.com/variety-viewer-variety-avocado-reference-1. also check out www.tropicalacresfarms.com/avocados
I have freeze them ripe before and they work for smoothie, actually Costco sell a bag of frozen chunks.
I'll have to try that
11:50 Tux cat showing off for the vid. :D I have a tux too.
Good video! Have you ever tried any West Indian types like Pollock?
Alex at Tropical Acres has a tree I wasn't thinking of getting
Great video. Could you please provide more information on the Maria Black Avocado. It seems to have very little information online.
there is not much out there on it but I just filmed one fruiting and will post the video soon
@@FruitfulTrees Awesome, thanks. I purchased one based on your recommendation. I will be planting it in a container.
Hi buddy' I love your videos I have a question would you know where I can buy some of the oohlala avacado trees? Im in the Orlando area, thanks.
Many places down here sell it but in Orlando check with Orlando Gardener that's his youtube page.
@@FruitfulTrees thanks for your reply.. Godspeed
Where did you get the know yeshua shirt?
someone in Austuralla is selling them
is super hass same as lamb hass?
will sharvill avocadp fruit in s florida?
It's not the same
What's length of season for the Maria Black and what type is it A or B? Thanks for the video.
Nov to Jan here is south Florida Not sure if it is A or B
@@FruitfulTrees hi there Paul, in the video you are holding an avocado fruit and you said it was a maria black and it was the month of September ,so how is posible season being from Nov to Jan?keep the videos,good job.
Lucky you live in tropics
Hey Paul, is the Maria black an A or b?
I have avocado trees growing inside 25 gallon planters. Now, Japanese Clover is growing in the soil around the trunk base in each planter. Is this dangerous to the avocado trees, or does the clover act more like mulch?
I am not sure ask Jullian at Laura Farms. what kind of Avcado trees do you have in pots and how have them been doing? Do they get fruit?
What about the Gem for Florida. It's hot with growers now because it tastes good and it grow to around 10 ft with pruning allowing more trees per acre.
Great video! What months does your oh-la-la avocado produce fruit?
I got rid of my oh-la-la it's also called super hass. The avocados didn't ripen evenly.
@@FruitfulTrees oh wow -thank you!
What about northern Florida like Jacksonville?
not sure what will grow there
I have a avocado tree I bought at home depot 8yrs ago. It doing well but I lost the tag and can't find out what variety it is. It looks a lot like a Hass but it is hard to peal, the skin comes off in small pieces. Can you help me?
Look on some charts to see pictures and seasons and you maybe able to identify it.
Where do you get your mangoes trees from can you put the link blow
There are several places i've mentioned in my other videos. Leaph in West Palm Beach and Alex and Tropical Acres Farms is where I get most from
Did you keep any coconut palms?
nope
well i'm considering about letting my hass avocado tree go i think its too far gone in its sick and dying with turning into a brownish color
❤️
Where can you actually buy all of these? I haven’t had success buying from nurseries and would love to support a small family farm! I’m in Sarasota
www.larafarmsmiami.com
Ever tried LR Thomson Red?
i think when I was there.
Have you seen a Reed avocado tree in Florida?
yes I have seen it. I love reed but I don't think it grows well here. I just seen someone selling it but I didn't see any trees in the ground
Hello Paul! about six month ago my husband and I bought a Maria Black avocado and we have not been able to find out what type of flower this tree is, could you please help us with this? we want to thank you for all your advices and valuable information you share on your channel it has been really helpful to us, we have in our back yard Maria Black tree, Choquette, Marcus Pumpkin, Reed and two others that we have planted from seed of avocados from Puerto Rico and the Dominican republic which unfortunately don't know their names. Thank you in advance!
where are you located? I just had a maria black avocado tonight. Amazing! Glad you got it. My tree died a while back because I moved it too many times but getting another one soon. I will try to find out the type this week.
@@FruitfulTrees Hello Paul we are located in Seminole county, so happy you got another MB! after watching one of your videos I mentioned to my husband we have to get MB and so we did, by watching one of your videos on how you do your fruit tree research we got to know so many vendors that it helped us find MB tree, Paul we really enjoy your videos you are a real inspiration to us.
@@Maria_A_Diaz_11 that is wonderful I have a video coming out soon about it. Do you have many trees there? Did you find out if it was an A or B from the vendors
@@rawlifehealthshow we got our trees ( MB and the Reed ) from The Everglades we asked them but they didn't know what type of flower MB is, at this moment we have 8 trees in total.
1) Maria Black
2) Reed
3) Choquette
4) Joey
5) Marcus Pumpkin
6) a Dominican specie planted from seed ( this one is 3yr old )
7 and 8) from Puerto Rico we planted from seed ( both are 1 1/2 yrs old) my husband and I always wanted to do some gardening and we started gardening about 3yrs ago as a hobby, we started purchasing our avocados pretty much after watching your videos.
all our trees are in 25gal pots we will plant them on the ground once we put a fence in our yard.
curious if you can direct me to anyone selling annona reticulata red (ramphal) grafted...thanks
Lara Farms. www.larafarmsmiami.com but I think they are sold out
We have an 20 year old avcado.
How can I know what type of avocado I have ?
Do you know what variety you have? do you mean type a or b or variety?
Which taste best? Rollenia, Abui, lyche or mangosteen?
Also are excellent but each is so different
@@FruitfulTrees common man u from Brooklyn. What kind of answer is that. Just tell me what u like most. I have one tree left to plant on my property. Need to make it a good one
@@d.mcpherson8724 If I only had one space left it wouldn't be any of the ones you said and I can't say what one because I don't know your situation, what you got etc. Lyche grows too big mangosteen doesn't fruit great here so it wouldn't be those two.
@@FruitfulTrees ok I'm leaning towards Abui. I live in Jamaica by the way via Far Rockaway.
Love your avocado trees, Paul! DO NOT pick Choquette until November at the earliest, or they'll be very watery-textured and you'll be disappointed. The longer you leave them on the tree, the more oil (and flavor) they'll develop. (I have a lot of experience with Choquette.) I didn't have much luck with Oro Negro either. It didn't produce much, then stopped growing. If you like sapodilla, that's one tree you can plant in the front yard near the street. (I do like them, not everyone does, as it's so sweet, non-juicy, with no acid balance.) No one will ever steal them!
I have like 4 or 5 Sapodilla in the front near the road. My oro Negro has 7 avocado on it. First year. Not ripe yet so will see how it taste.
@@FruitfulTrees The flavor of Oro Negro is very rich, that's for sure!
I wish you'd tell us how old they are
what tree did you want to know how old?
All of them
Avocado 🥑 is the only fruit that doesn’t ripe on the tree ;I’m surprised you don’t know that .
I know they do avocados but I'm not sure about anything else
I wish less talk about other trees and more about avocados
I'm posting a video today or tomorrow all about avocados
