Spidra's Avocado 'Mexicola'

Obtained greenwood from a fellow CRFG member. Splice grafted it to my seedling avocado. From CRFG Fruit Facts: “Origin Coolidge, Pasadena, 1910. Mexican. Tree tall and spreading, vigorous. Fruit small, 5 oz., round pyriform, skin paper-thin, purplish black, waxy bloom. Flesh highest quality, seed very large. Hardiest cv. known, seedlings useful as rootstocks in far north. Recovers rapidly from freeze. Defoliated at 20° F, trunk killed at 17° F. Season September.”
