Are there any dwarf avocado trees?
Also know, what is the best dwarf avocado tree?
The Wurtz avocado tree, sometimes referred to as Little Cado, is the only true dwarf variety of avocado and will consistently produce good fruit from May to September. Compared to other avocado trees, which can grow up to 80 feet, a Wurtz avocado tree grows to about 10 feet.
Moreover, how do you take care of a dwarf avocado tree?
Avocado trees grow best in full sun in a fine sandy loam soil with excellent drainage. They won't tolerate heavy, clay soils well. Pick a spot for your avocado tree that is protected from heavy winds, which can cause fruit drop and defoliation.
Identify the avocado tree by looking at its leaves, which should be alternate and dark-green with slightly lighter-green veins. The avocado leaves are glossy and can stay on the tree for up to three years. The leaves of Mexican avocado trees have an anise-like odor when crushed.
