I lived in Palm Beach, FL a few years ago. We had two orange and avocado trees in our back yard. The oranges were so sweet and avocado delicious. We share fruits with our neighbors. I miss those days.
Thank you for your bringing back my good memory..
Thanks @boulder2018! We just planted a 5.5 foot avocado tree in our backyard and it has been struggling to survive. Any advice on taking care of an avocado tree? We are hoping it will bear fruit one day!
we didn't plant, they were already there when we moved in. I did look up how to grow avocado tree, they mention location is one of the most important considerations. Since avocado trees do not have bark to protect themselves from the intense sun and so they must be planted under shade. Better plant under the shade of the parent plant and as it matures it would eventually break through the upper canopy.
Great advice! Our tree is actually in the sun most of the day so I think it’s time to move him or her.
