What customers say

The specimens are described as vigorous and ready for planting, showing successful establishment quickly. This strong initial health suggests high genetic quality.

Know before you buy
Because this tree is grafted, you can typically expect to see your first harvest within 3 to 4 years. This is significantly faster than trees grown from seed, which can take much longer to mature.
The Hass Avocado Tree is highly adaptable and thrives in containers, where it will reach a manageable height of 5 to 7 feet. If planted outdoors in the ground, it can grow to a mature height of 15 to 20 feet.
While the Hass Avocado Tree is partially self-pollinating, having another avocado tree nearby can often increase your overall fruit yield. However, it is capable of producing fruit on its own.
This tree is best suited for USDA Hardiness Zone 9. Once mature, it is resilient enough to tolerate outdoor temperatures as low as 20 degrees Fahrenheit.
To ensure optimal growth and fruit production, your Hass Avocado Tree requires a location with full sun exposure. If keeping the tree indoors, place it in the brightest window available or use a grow light.
