Well my Haas avocado isn't doing that well, but to be fair, it's been absolutely ravaged by deer a number of times. They strip almost every leaf off of it every chance they get, I finally put a fence around it.
It dropped almost all it's leafs after a cold snap this year, then produced tons of blossoms. Only 3 fruit have set, but again, the deer also nearly killed the tree - yet again!
I hear they just don't do too well in my area. Any truth to this? If this is the case, I'd rather pull the tree - or top work it??? I guess I'd have to know the root stock to make that decision.
Thoughts? Will a Haas thrive in Naples, or will it struggle?
Thank you!
