Avocado reached the roof.
In article , newspost-c-
says... A friend of ours lives in Exeter, they have an Avocado they have grown for about 5 years in their conservatory, and it has now reached the roof. It has been suggested that they try it outside - but I reckon Exeter will be too cold in the winter. I think it would need to be somewhere very mild with no real frosts to have a chance of making it. Though I'm not sure how bothered they are about it surviving. any experience with this? My though is to just cut it back and hopefully it will re-sprout Clive at Hardy Exotics tells me that several of his customers in London are cropping theirs!, you really need an extreme coastal or city garden but it can be done -- Charlie Pridham, Gardening in Cornwall www.roselandhouse.co.uk Holders of national collections of Clematis viticella cultivars and Lapageria rosea |
