My Avocado! ! ! !

Life outside may have taken a long winters nap, but my garden inside continues to keep me busy.  So during the Logee's Black Friday sale I decided to continue to expand my edible collection and picked up this Day Avocado.  I've recently been intruced to avacados and have found a new love of guacomole.  Avocados generally aren't that cheap, so I thought I would give it a try and see if I couldn't just grow it.  I can't tell you how excited I am that it has continued to grow and started putting out flowers.  I didn't actually know what was actually growing, but after a quick google search I found that they ar all flower bunches.  YEAH! ! ! !

Flower bunches !



According to my lovely google search each one of these bunches creates 2-3 avocados.  I don't have a pollinator for it so we'll have to wait and see what happens with it.  I think I'll be happy if I even get one my first year.  I don't think this is the small black one that is similar to the hass which is popular in stores, but I'll try anything.  I'm sure it will taste fabulous if I can get it to mature.  Don't think you can get any fresher than that.
