after the avocado chat on the previous page i happened upon one today, an absolute monster of a tree with hundreds of avocados on. the guy in whose garden it was growing asked me not to make the location known so i'll not say where it is. just a few days previous a massive section of it cracked and fell in the winds, still loads of tree and fruit left though. he planted it 20 years ago and says it still hasn't quite acclimatized to the uk, putting out fruit at strange times of the year, but this years crop looked pretty amazing the heat must have done it some favours. lucky guy. just needs to find a way to preserve some.
