Default Re: What did you plant today (other plants)?

Today I visited Paul Fisher in El Cajon, whom some of you know as the V.P. of the CRFG. I brought him some extra pitaya cuttings and he gave me a fruit from the Avocado he has developed (patent pending). Paul operates a nursery from his home with some of the best (and unusual) fruit varieties that will produce in southern CA. You can reach him at 619-322-4141.

Here is a picture of 2/3 of the fruit plus seed. The seed weighed in at 0.1 pounds, and the fruit + skin (w/o seed) weighed 0.75 pounds. The fruit is of excellent quality. If the seed produces anything decent, I think I'll call it Paul-son.
