We got a new addition to our backyard today. We got ourselves a new fruit/veggie tree which we also wanted to have for a long time and now we finally got one. An avocado tree.


Avocado trees tend to be pretty big trees, just like the mango trees, but there are all kinds of different avocado and mango trees which also differ in size of the tree and so we got ourselves a smaller avocado tree that doesn't grow too high or very, very big but supposed to give you really delicious avocados.
So now we just have to wait and see for about 3 years for this tree to give us some avocados.

We are running out of space here on our backyard so I thought of having the avocado tree on our bigger lot on the beach, but there is one problem. Avocado trees don't really like too much sun or super hot, hot weather so from what we hear the avocado tree will not make it on the beach.
Now I know why I have never seen an avocado tree near the coast, but lots of mango and coconut trees.


Always learning and experiencing something new here in El Salvador which is awesome especially when it comes to gardening.


We were also looking for some noni trees, plantain trees and anona trees, but had no luck finding it, so we will have to look some more since I really want those trees.

That looks like a very healthy start. Great job!

Avocado trees can grow very tall if permitted. What I do to keep them shorter is to "top" them when they are about 6 feet tall. You cut top two limbs in order for the other limbs to gain strength. It'll keep it wider, instead of growing too high straight up.

What an amazing addition to your trees!
I agree, it's great to learn more about gardening, I've also learned a lot this year.

I can't wait to see the progress and growth of the avocado tree! Thanks for sharing and I wish you a wonderful day! :)
