Tropical Fruit Discussion / Re: Needs recommendations for cocktail Day avocado tree

Strangely you want the opposite type and the season doesn't appear to matter much, at least from my reading. For California there are lots of known and recommended pairings or triplets (Haas + Fuerte is the safest). I've never searched for pairings that are good in Florida but they probably are known. If google doesn't get you the answer, you could cross reference the Avocadoes 24/7 thread list with good CA pairings list to choose.

From my search Day is type A and July to Sept. Oro Negro (as a possible pair) is type B and fruit appear to mature Nov - Jan.
