Ring-around-the mulberry bush...:+)...

You are fortunate to live in a zone conducive for growing avocadoes.

I'm in zone 9; and thankfully, I heard recently on a gardening show that a harvest-hearty variety is new to this area. I look forward to buying one.

Avocado pits usually only produce a green plant, no fruit.

Happy gardening...and thanks for sharing!

Peace!
