Persea americana 'Bacon' - Bacon Avocado

Market price from $97.99 to $149.99

Persea americana 'Bacon' is a delightful addition to any sun-kissed garden, offering not just visual appeal but a lavish bounty of edible treasures too. Standing proudly at a height of 15 to 20 feet, this evergreen tree is both a hardy and attractive fixture. Its lush, glossy leaves of a rich dark green shade serve as an exquisite backdrop to clusters of petite creamy-green flowers. Known to be drought-tolerant, this variety is as resilient as it is beautiful, relishing full sun and thriving under low water usage. As a fruitful bonus, the 'Bacon' variety rewards gardeners with a rich yield of avocado, its thin, smooth skin housing creamy, luscious flesh with a distinctive nutty flavour. Delicate and easily peelable, these avocados are perfect for any culinary adventure. With the Bacon Avocado, one does not simply cultivate a tree, but a year-round festival of flavor, texture, and color.
