Default Avocado Tree

I planted a tree maybe 7 yrs ago here in San Diego from a seed. Will it bear
fruit? I think it is a small unusual type Avocado maybe from Mexico. We bought
the fruit at a grocery store and I remember that it had a very buttery exotic
sort of texture not like the typical avocado purchased here in San Diego. The
tree looks very healthy but no flowers at all. What can I expect? Thanks.

Hi Larry,

You don't say where in San Diego - but they'll certainly grow in
Escondido and in the San Pasquale valley. They're grown commercially all
around San Diego county, at least inland.

cheers,

Marj
