No Oro Negro, but the Lula in my yard are ripening quite a bit earlier this year. Couple of fruit that fell off ripened okay.

We in the lower part of Florida will have to adapt. I have trees that did not even set one fruit this years, others did bumper crops. On the bright side it opens a lot of possibilities (and land) to places north of Miami-Dade to grow sub tropical. I think that as far north as Sebring you can at some point in time do a commercial avocado grove. Land is a lot less expensive.

All of my Oro Negro fruits dropped or were hammered by evil militant squirrels, months ago. 2nd year fruiting, yet to try one.
