With a buttery, creamy texture very similar to Hass but with less oil content, the Bacon Avocado makes for the perfect mid-size avocado tree. Larger than the dwarf ‘Wurtz’ but smaller than the typical full size 35’ tree, perfect for gardeners who want lots of avocado but at a more easily managed size. Bacon is a hybrid of 2 Mexican varieties, cultivated by James Bacon in 1954, Buena Park, CA. Able to survive temps down to nearly 25°, making is popular in areas where other avocado struggle. California’s Central Valley and Bay Area (San Francisco) gardeners will find this the perfect choice!
