My friend just picked the last of these. The tree was purchased as a Winter Mexican but the few photos I found online don't match. Grown in Sarasota, FL. The tree seems somewhat dwarfish.

Looks like Winter Mexican. On the late side for one though.

Good to know! He told me they aren't ripening evenly for him as well. I am going to skirt his tree, fertilize it and give it some extra love. He was debating on topworking or just pulling it and direct sowing a seed and field grafting. Here are the pictures I saw that had me questioning it.

They just used stock images of Hass fruit because nobody has bothered to take photographs of Winter Mexican.
