Description Fine Print
 
The avocado plant (Persea americana) is a subtropical tree with lustrous dark green evergreen leaves that often emerge flushed with orange or red. It is grown for the abundant production of its well-known, delicious, buttery fruits. Trees can be grown as potted specimens and protected indoors during Canadian winters. 'Gwen' naturally grows to about 10-15 feet in height but can be kept smaller as it lends itself easily to pruning with its smaller limbs. It is a Hass type avocado but with slightly larger fruit that are plump and oval with thick green skins that have a pebbled surface turning dull green as they age. The creamy gold-green flesh has a nutty, buttery flavour. It surrounds a small to medium sized seed. Keep above 0 degrees C (32 degrees F). It is an A Type and requires a B Type for cross pollination and to get fruit on both trees.
