Thanks for the pictures. Very unique. I never seen that before. 3-4 inches long are actually bigger than I thought.

Kaz, would you say the skin on the Krueger is doable? Someone on YouTube has a Mexicola Cuke avocado and we all know the skin on the Mexicola is edible, but the fruit looks to be very tiny though.

Hey Kaz, just messaged you for a bag of fruits. Thanks.

Thanls

Ok, for those of you who purchased a Krueger scion and didn't buy any fruits, I will give you 1 complimentary fruit so you can taste it. But you need to post here with your feedback of the fruit you ate.


Don't forget to wait until it turns black and gives a little when you squeeze it. I noticed the fruits that are all black or show any softness on the ends are already over ripe so I will try to send fruit that is not fully ripe yet.

[Sir Graftalot]

I think they'd make a great cuke avocado, pitted olive, and honey jar jujube salad.🤤

Wei, thanks for that video. It made me laugh since my seedless avocado tree I have (about 8 ft tall) also has miniature fruits just like that guy's Mexicola avocado cuke. The fruits on my tree so far have been all seedless finger fruits about that size and it turns black when it is ripe. Really hard to tell when it is ready since it is so small, not easy to do a squeeze test. I took some photos of my small crop of 8-10 fruits this season so I will posted here so you can see how small the fruits are compared to the real Seedless Krueger avocado fruits.

[Sir Graftalot]

Thanks for the pictures. The Krueger's a nice sized fruit in comparison. Can't wait to sample the fruit and have this thing grafted up. Thanks again, Kaz.

I just made the bags of fruits to ship out today. If you are buying a scion, I highly recommend you buy a few fruits so that you can taste it and not pay extra shipping again later.

I just ate a few more ripe fruits, and it tastes better than a Fuerte. It tastes like a Hass, dark yellow flesh, nutty side.

Your post reminded me to follow up on a message I had sent on this same fruit 🤣. I was able to get a bag to try as well. The owner put a post up to sell some fruit and got thousands of messages, he looked down at his phone to answer a message and it turned out to be Kaz. It must be fate.

He was nice enough to bring me a ripe one to try and can confirm it is quite tasty. The skin is edible as well. The original owner saw no value in the fruit and was just letting them fall to the ground for the critters. Its crazy how different we value things.

Wow, talk about one man's trash...

Thanks, Kaz. I have already made a payment for 5 avocados ($5), but no need for a refund. Please consider it as store credit for future purchases

Too late you package shipped out. Don't pay for any fruits, you get 2 complementary fruits.

[fishie]

Yup, pretty crazy

Thanks again for a chance at this rare variety avocado, Kaz. It'll be great to see these fruits hanging alongside my Lila on the same tree.

You can grow the tree indoors/greenhouse. It will be a valuable tree once your graft takes. Most online nurseries sell what they claim to be a true seedless finger avocado tree for $100 if you're lucky to find it. This is my find of a lifetime as far as avocado varieties goes. Also, second place would be the Hawaiian Russel avocado tree I have. Once I verify the size of that Russell fruit, then I will be sharing scions maybe next year..

Greenhouse isn't an option, but I could try indoors. Having this fruiting in my living room would be lovely.

No tree to graft onto currently though. :\ Would be up for getting one that's pre-grafted unless more scions are available later, but I may get a store-bought seed going to graft onto myself.

Does this one have more of a dwarfing habit or is it full size?
