The 16 ounce Day avocado is green, smooth skin and is shaped like a club. The fruit is of very good quality and has a nice buttery consistancy. The slender tree is very cold tolerant (to 22F degrees) and produces July through September. The Day prefers full sun, adequate moisture and good drainage. This tree should set fruit within 3 years.
