Thats what came to me at first, but can it be so high?

Jananas Bananas · 05-16-2010, 04:47 PM

Ante are you asking me? This link says they can get to 80 feet! (though usually less)

AVOCADO Fruit Facts

I have seen some enormous trees in California. They are the experts for avocados. That link is from the California Rare Fruit Growers. ~J

Ante , if it is an avocado tree it could in fact get huge. There are several varieties and I recently saw one on my LA trip that was taller than a 2 story house. I dont know the variety but they were the huge avocados we rarely ever see in the stores around this area of the country. Tasted good to me though.....
