Which avocado tree variety would be best to grow?

If you’re here to read an agriculture research or recommendation then this specific post is not the one, and you may check the other posts written by H who is one of our team members. But if you want to know my approach in choosing the trees when I started growing, you’re in the right place.

Some of us live most of our life following recommendations, rules, and instructions. We get used to follow what we have been told to do. This habit grows in us that much that we use same approach for even choosing our hobbies. No instruction or recommendation or guideline can work for everyone and everything. Based on personality people have different preferences. People select their liking based on the criteria that can be unknown to others.


For growing avocado trees in the pot or in your yard be free to choose the variety that you think you would prefer whether it’s an A or B type, Heavy producer or not and etc.


I like the way Nabal leaves look. I like the taste of the fruit. It’s a B type and the tree may be spreading but I’ve been able to keep the tree size how I like and I do fertilize and water the tree and it produce a lot of healthy and delicious avocados.

I like Sharwil. Is the tree short as one grower says? Of course not! It grows as you like. It has a nice foliage and structure. It is one of the best looking trees and the fruits taste great.


I like Fuerte. The tree is strong. If you taste a genuine organic Fuerte avocado that is picked at the right time then you would be a fan for probably your whole life.


I like Big Black (Negro Grande) avocado tree. The tree is strong and produces well. It’s great addition to the yard and never disappoints you.


I like Carmen Hass (Super Hass Avocado tree). It surprises me by its flowering habit. It grows well, produces well and looks beautiful.

I like Lamb Hass. It’s an always happy tree that produces heavy crop. Did my first Lamb dropped its fruit at young age right before they get mature (As one expert was saying somewhere)? Of course not!


I like Pinkerton. It’s a heavy producer and you wouldn’t be able to find anyone who wouldn’t love the taste of the fruit. The tree is very manageable and is one of the best pollinators for Fuerte and many other B types.


When deciding on purchasing avocado trees, do your research but at the end pick the variety that you like based on your preferences and share with us below your experience purchasing your first tree/s.
