Persea americana 'Hass' (Hass Avocado)

Persea americana 'Hass' (Hass Avocado) is the world's most popular avocado variety, renowned for its rich, nutty flavour and creamy texture. This evergreen tree produces pebbly-skinned fruits that turn from green to dark purple-black when ripe, with pale green flesh that is perfect for guacamole, salads, and sandwiches. The tree features glossy, dark green leaves and a spreading growth habit that makes it both an attractive shade tree and a productive addition to the garden.

Ideal for subtropical and frost-free temperate climates, 'Hass' thrives in well-drained soil and full sun. It requires a warm, protected position and benefits from cross-pollination with Type A avocado varieties for optimal fruit production. This tree is particularly valued for its consistent yields of high-quality fruit and its ornamental appeal in edible landscapes.
