DESCRIPTION
The ‘Mexicola’ avocado, scientifically known as Persea americana ‘Mexicola’, is a unique variety that offers distinctive characteristics. This evergreen tree features dark green, leathery leaves and a compact growth habit, making it suitable for smaller gardens or container cultivation. The ‘Mexicola’ avocado produces small to medium-sized fruit with a thin, purple-black skin that is easy to peel. The flesh is rich, creamy, and possesses a smooth texture, with a flavor that is often described as buttery and nutty. The ‘Mexicola’ avocado is known for its high oil content, which contributes to its luscious taste and smooth consistency. This variety is also recognized for its cold-hardiness, making it suitable for regions with cooler climates. While the ‘Mexicola’ avocado is self-pollinating, having multiple trees or planting it alongside other avocado varieties can improve fruit production. With its delicious fruit and adaptability, the ‘Mexicola’ avocado is a fantastic choice for avocado enthusiasts looking to enjoy homegrown avocados.
