I have some grafted hybrid Bacon avocado scions on 1 yr old mexican seedling plants for sale.
This may be the only source for this variety. I am not definite on this variety, just that the original scion for the tree shown is from the Huntington arboretum trees.

I need to know if I should up-pot these seedlings or leave them in the same pot for shipment orders.
Here's the details:
- Taking advance order, 1 per customer
- Cost is $40 plus shipping (approx $16-$20) for USPS priority mail

*** updated costs:  $30 each plus shipping of $17(priority mail) => Total is $47 ***[3-1-21 kt]
*** The shipping cost can vary from $10-$17 depending on your location. I will provide once you give Zip code. The plant and box will weigh about 2lbs.

- Plant size: seedling will be 1yr old, in 10" tall pots now (2-/12"x2-1/2"x10").
- overall height including pot & plant is between 16"-26" tall.
- Box/package size is approx 3" x 3" x 24"
-> The rootstock seeds are from the 70yr old Hamada tree
- You can reserve a plant, when I ship around April-May, I will send you PM to confirm if you still want to purchase or not.
- Limited quantities, first come first serve.
- I will update this post when all are reserved
- Fruit size is similar to Bacon, skin is thin, taste is better than bacon, inside flesh color is white/light yellow. Weight = 300-350 grams.
- Origin of tree scion shown is from Huntington arboretum orchard, scion was cut & grafted to the tree shown over 50yrs ago. I'm not sure if the original mother tree exists now, they may have removed it during renovation of the orchard.

Here's a few photos of the current grafted plants. Also some photos of the fruits.
The only fruit photo I had was of a 1 week overripe fruit compared next to a Fuerte.

Only taking Paypal payment, USA only.
Send me PM if you would like to be on the advance order list.

Arrived as promised, well packed and looking healthy. The tracking number provided did not work, but I very much suspect that was a USPS internal issue, and it did arrive on the predicted date.
