🌟 Overview

• 🔹 Common Name: Hass Avocado
• 🔹 Botanical Name: Persea americana
• 🔹 Plant Type: Grafted Fruit-Bearing Tree

☀️ Light Requirements

The Hass Avocado thrives in full, intense sunlight. It requires at least 6 to 8 hours of direct sun daily to maintain healthy foliage and encourage heavy fruit production.

💧 Water Requirements

Water deeply and regularly, allowing the top 2 inches of soil to dry out completely before watering again. Excellent drainage is vital, as avocados are highly susceptible to root rot in soggy soils.

📏 Size & Growth

As a grafted specimen, this tree remains more compact and manageable than seed-grown counterparts, but it can still reach heights of 15 to 25 feet when planted in the ground. It can be easily pruned to maintain a smaller habit.

🌍 Origin & Characteristics

Originally derived from a mother tree in California, this cultivar features rough, pebbled skin that turns deep purple-black when ripe. The flesh inside is exceptionally creamy with a high healthy oil content.

📇 Toxicity & Safety Warning

Avocado leaves, bark, and fruit skins contain a natural toxin called persin. While harmless to humans, it is toxic to many domestic animals, including dogs, cats, horses, and birds. Keep away from pets.
