The Go-To Avocado Tree for Cold Climates

Why Cold Hardy Avocado Trees?

Home-grown avocados, no matter where you live. With the Cold Hardy Avocado Tree, it's possible. This strong tree withstands frigid temperatures as low as 20 degrees, living up to its name.

Simply plant your Avocado Tree in a container and bring it inside during the winter months - it will continue to grow. You’ll get an abundant yield of fruit, year after year, and even faster than you would with seed-grown varieties. Basically, the Cold Hardy Avocado's fast growth means you're going to enjoy your avocados in at least three years instead of the 10 years or more it takes to grow fruit from seedlings.

Why FastGrowingTrees.com is Better

-Our Cold Hardy Avocado Tree is a proven performer.

-We've hand-picked the best, healthiest varieties to ship to your door.

-Because they've been grafted (with rootstock combined from a hardy, disease-resistant tree, and a mature tree) and grown in our greenhouse with care, they're happy and healthy from day one to your door.

-With our largest Cold Hardy Avocado Trees, you may get fruit as soon as the first year...perfect for those who want to harvest their home-grown avocados as soon as possible!

-We carry four varieties of the Cold Hardy Avocado: the Mexicola, the Brogdon, the Oro Negro, and the Bacon. You will receive one of the four when you order, but rest assured that each variety delivers the rich, buttery flavor and carefree, hardy growth that make the Cold Hardy Avocado famous.

Superior flavor from a superfood. Is there anything better? The texture and taste of store-bought simply can't compare. Whether you're making homemade guacamole or the ever-popular avocado toast, the bold flavor is amazing. And the second-to-none taste isn't the only benefit you'll reap because they're loaded with vitamins A, B6, C, E.

So, the Cold Hardy Avocado Tree is one of the most versatile trees on the market. For a larger tree, plant it outdoors and watch it soar to heights of 15 to 20 feet. Or, for a shorter tree, plant in a container and you can limit growth to between 5 and 7 feet in height. Many growers find this method optimal for moving the tree between indoors and out.

Our larger sizes commonly bear fruit their very first year. And your tree will be more forgiving and easier to grow indoors or out. But demand from new orchards and home growers has put this tree in short supply. We recommend that you order yours today while larger sizes are still available!

    Zero issues

    The tree arrived timely and in good condition. I removed it from the box immediately, watered, and placed it in the sun. A week later and it’s looking healthy and putting on lots of new growth. Very happy with this tree!

    When the avocado tree was

    When the avocado tree was delivered I was a little bit disappointed , here was this 5ft stick ! I wasn't sure how many years it was going to take before anything happened , especially since I'm 72yrs old !! Low and behold within days there were new leaves sprouting up everywhere !! I was tickled to death . I would definitely recommend this product in fact buy more than one if you can !! 😋

    Avocado Tree Quality is questionable

    My avocado tree was received in poor condition. Spots everywhere and drooping. Within 1. 5 weeks the plant was dead. I refused to transplant it right away as it was clearly stressed and I knew it would contaminate the very expensive organic soil I had purchased. It had black spots on a lot of the leaves and as time went on more and more leaves dropped until the tree was completely bare and dead I did receive a credit after submitting a claim and purchased the gem avocado which is much more expensive and it arrived in the same condition. My other citrus plants from the company have been thriving. Can't say the same about the avocado. I'm giving 3 stars because I got a credit but that's the only reason.

    Fast Growing Trees Plant ExpertHello Anika! We're sorry to hear about your experience with the avocado tree. We appreciate your feedback and hope to provide you with a better plant in the future. Thank you for giving our citrus plants a chance to thrive!
