Avocado 'Fantastic' (Persea americana)
Regular price $99.95The ‘Fantastic’ Avocado tree is a tropical/subtropical evergreen fruit tree in the Lauraceae family, related to Cinnamon and Bay Leaves. This variety of Avocado rocks a surprising cold-hardiness for a Mexican variety, tolerating temperatures of so low as 10 degrees! Producing fruit easily in a container, you can keep your tree at 5-7 ft. or let it grow to its 30 ft. potential. Friendly and relatively low-maintenance, the ‘Fantastic’ Avocado can pack a remarkable flavor punch! Thin-skinned, quite large, and incredibly creamy, these fruits are a sure-fire means to winning guacamole.
