š„ About Choquette Avocado

Produces large, oval-shaped fruit with smooth, green skin

āļø Sunlight
Choose a location with full sun, ideally around 6ā8 or more hours of direct sunlight daily. Young trees may benefit from some protection from intense afternoon sun while they establish, especially in very hot conditions.
š± Soil Requirements
Avocado trees need loose, aerated, well-draining soil. A slightly acidic to neutral soil is generally suitable. Avoid heavy or waterlogged soil, as avocado roots are sensitive to poor drainage.
For in-ground planting, mulch can help conserve moisture and protect shallow roots. Keep mulch several inches away from the trunk.
š§ Watering
Water deeply when the upper layer of soil begins to dry, then allow excess water to drain. Young trees generally need closer monitoring and more frequent watering than established trees. Adjust watering to rainfall, temperature, soil type, and container size.
š”ļø Climate & Temperature
Choquette is best suited to tropical and subtropical climates. Avocado trees are sensitive to frost and prolonged cold, so protect the tree from freezing conditions. In cooler areas, container growing may make it easier to move the plant into a protected location, provided adequate light is available.
šæ Fertilizing
During active growth, use a fertilizer formulated for avocado or citrus trees, following the product label. Feed according to the tree's age, season, and growing conditions, and avoid overfertilizing.
š³ Planting & Long-Term Care
Allow the tree to establish before moving it into a larger container or planting it in the ground. Choose a location with enough room for mature growth. Consistent watering, good drainage, adequate sunlight, and suitable temperatures help support healthy development.
