From my other post on the Seedless Krueger cocktail/finger avocado:

History/background:

Since finding a person who has a large Seedless Cocktail Finger avocado this month, I got interested again to see if there many people who has such a tree that has seedless cocktail fruits on it.

Well, so far, the most impressive tree I found was the Seedless Krueger cocktail avocado tree. I have spoken with the person who owns the tree and now helping him promote the variety he has. I have not really found any other seedless cocktail tree/plants growing or on sale that actually gave me similar fruits, so I wanted to share the Krueger with all our TFF avocado collectors.

In this post, I wanted to list some of the other claimed seedless cocktail avocado fruits that I found on my search for it recently again. I have been looking for this type of tree for over 5 years when I saw some of those photos people show on YouTube videos and purchase multiple varieties from online nurseries such as the Wilson Seedless, Tyson Seedless, unnamed Seedless plants that were still small, grafted on a 1-2yr old avocado seedling. If the tree has only a small amount of random cuke fruits on the tree hanging with other normal size fruits, then I don't consider it a significant tree that can produce consistently these cukes fruits repeatedly and will not mention it here on the list.

I will now list what I have found so far of these types below and as I get some photos of the actual fruits or photos of the fruits hanging from the tree, I will add to this post. Also, if anyone else has them growing, it would be nice to see your fruit photo showing it hanging from your tree, so we know it is a real fruit tree, not some photos taken from the internet (not verified as real).

I will not disclose the location of these trees, so the tree owners don't get hassled about selling cuttings or fruits from random people who heard about it.

Later tonight, I will show the photos of each cocktail fruits I found so far, then try to do a side-by-side comparison where possible so we can see how they compare. Here's the list so far.

1. Seedless Krueger cocktail avocado
2. My unknown Seedless (will name it later) cocktail avocado
3. Fuerte#1 Seedless cocktail avocado branch
4. Fuerte#2 Seedless cocktail avocado tree
5. Fuerte#3 seedless cocktail avocado tree - still not able to contact the person who claims it has all seedless fruits on the tree.

There are many more, but I will only show the ones that I have personally got fruits from that tree and have photo evidence of its existence. So I will not show the other named varieties sold from online nurseries where we (forum members) don't have anyone that has a fruiting tree. I will show some trees I have purchased from some nurseries to show the size and cost of it in case anyone is looking to buy one. This will give you an idea of the cost for a grafted tree.

=============================================================================
Once we get this list updated with trees our TFF members are growing and fruiting, we can discuss how productive and true each variety is, and the taste review to allow others to decide if they like it and want to get some scions to graft onto their trees.
=============================================================================

I have the first three on my list above, and will be checking out the tree#4 today and hope it has more than just a few cukes growing on the tree.

If anyone has a cocktail avocado tree growing and it fruits, then please post below and I can add to the list.

Sorry, but what's the definition of cocktail avocado tree that you're referring to? I have grafted 3 varieties on one avocado tree, so that would make it a cocktail, but I don't think that's what you're looking for.

sc4001992:
Sorry, no what people mean by Cocktail/finger avocado fruit (not tree) is that these fruits are the small, skinny fruits which have no seeds.

Like the Seedless Krueger cocktail avocado. It is not because the avocado tree has many different varieties grafted on it.

My multi-grafted avocado tree has about 14 varieties grafted on it, but only one seedless cocktail fruit (Krueger). It will also have the other variety of seedless cocktail/finger avocado that I mentioned above Fuerete #1 seedless finger avocado.
