Hi, everyone.
I was talking to my mom today on the phone, and she told me the avocado
plant she grew from a seed over 10 years ago now has fruits on it the size
of small plums. Apparently they don't look like avocados at all. She has
cut
two of them open -- they each had two large seeds and tasted like citrus
fruits (sort of orange/lemony). Can this plant ever produce "normal"
avocados, or is that impossible now that the plant is grown? Should she
have
grafted the young avocado seedling onto different rootstock in order to
grow
a Hass avocado (which is what the original seed was from)?
Thanks for any assistance you can offer.
Terri A.
