Pot Size

A good avocado for containers, ‘Mexicola’ is one of the easier varieties to fruit in a pot, and it has a densely branching, low mounding form. The first to flower of the varieties we grow, it blooms over a long season making it useful as a cross pollinator for other avocado varieties. It’s self-fertile and produces small, shiny, black, oblong fruit in late summer. It is one of the more cold hardy cultivars tolerating sub-freezing temperatures better than most.

    Healthy plant

    We looked for this type of avocado everywhere locally. We wanted a cold hardy variety for north Florida. No luck. We were skeptical about ordering on-line for trees. This lovely tree arrived. It was very healthy and well packaged. Will definitely order from sow exotics again.
