Growing Information
Oro Negro was selected for its potential in both home gardens and commercial production. Choose a planting location appropriate for avocado trees and your local climate. Provide well-draining soil and suitable growing conditions.
As a grafted tree, it offers a named variety rather than relying on the uncertain characteristics of a seed-grown plant. Fruit production depends on tree maturity, climate, pollination, and growing conditions.
