Our old avocado tree took a long time to make any fruit. After like three to four years of tending it, my parents decided to give up. They just started throwing compost onto it, and forgot about it...then one day there were three avocadoes!! lol and that was about it...Good while it lasted.
Yea, they take a long time to fruit. Thats ok, we just bought this house at the end of '08 and we plan on having it a while. I can be patient for my guacamole. It will be well worth it when I wont have to spend $1.00 each on thoes damn things! Im dreaming of a tree that produces more avacados than I can eat!.... and I'll be standing out on the corner, giving away bags em!
