Avocados
We deliver to Broward, Dade, and Palm Beach Counties
Avocado trees in varieties chosen for South Florida, ripening from June into January. We carry 8 varieties: 3-gallon trees cost $56.95 to $58.95 and 15-gallon trees $174.95. All want full sun and can reach about 30 ft.
Summer avocados. Simmonds is South Florida’s popular early-season avocado, ripening June to August, as does Russell, with its gourd shape and fruit up to 5 lb. Catalina and the cold-hardy, purple-skinned Brogdon follow in August and September.
Fall and winter avocados. Choquette ripens October to December, with 3–5 lb fruit, and Monroe November to January. Marcus Pumpkin is a mid-season variety with very large fruit, and Oro Negro has black skin and buttery flesh.
Planting two or three varieties with different seasons spreads the harvest. See all Fruit Trees and Fertilizers.
Pick up at our Cooper City nursery, or we’ll deliver across Broward, Miami-Dade and Palm Beach counties.
