Super Hass Avocado 

Persea americana x ‘ Super Hass (Mendez No. 1) ’ 

 

A new and distinct variety of an avocado tree having many characteristics similar to that of `Hass`. ir characterized by profuse blossoming six to seven months earlier than the `Hass` avocado tree and bearing fruit that is mature earlier during the season than `Hass` fruit. The tree was originally found by Carlos Mendezin in a Hass orchard in Michoacan, Mexico in the 1980, it had unusual flowering habits (earlier than hass and sometimes several times a year) and tendency to ripen fruit during the off season.

It was patented as “Mendez No. 1” and is also sold under the trademarked name “Carmen Hass”.

In California this variety blossoms in August and September and also in February. 

Frost tolerance: Distinctly more frost tolerant than the Hass avocado variety. `Mendez No. 1` tolerates frosty conditions such as 28° Fahrenheit for several hours or even 26° for two or three hours with less severe damage than by `Hass`.
