Hass Avocado is a California classic and the most commonly grown avocado in the US. A vigorous grower with plentiful fruit, it has creamy flesh, high oil content and excellent flavor. Easy to peel, Hass has bumpy skin and turns black as it ripens. Hass has Type A flowers and is self-fertile but can benefit from proximity to a complementary Type B variety. Examples of complementary types include Fuerte, Pinkerton, Bacon and Sir Prize. Pro grower’s tip: Whitewashing exposed branches with diluted latex paint in summertime helps prevent sunburn. Cold hardy to 28-32F.
