Thanks, FM. You are likely right about your speculation. Could be Fuerta. I am continuing my search for Nimlioh and Atkins is not answering the phone. We will continue to try to purchase a Nimlioh tree to pare up with Hass (A and B blossoms). BTW, I have a small Cherimoya orchard in Carpinteria and will be removing some mature fruit-bearing trees. Any interest? If so, contact us: brocos@sbcglobal.net.

My understanding is that a Florida Avocado is likely just a reference to the location it was grown and a reflection of some sort of united group of growers promoting the region. It is unlikely that Florida Avocado is a specific variety, but I’m not at all an expert on that.

In December, I bought a large avocado fruit (more than a pound) from the local LA market, with a sticker “Grown in Dominican Republic). I’m trying to find out if this fruit is what is referred to as a Florida Avocado? If not, what is a Florida Avocado? I’m trying to pair up A and B blossoms, and so far have Haas and Zutano trees going.

Sorry Nate – I don’t grow anything so I don’t have tree advice for you. I just eat them and sadly I haven’t seen these again. Excuse me while I cry…
