How Big Do Your Avocado Trees Grow?

“Keep All Avocado Trees Dwarf at Around 2.5 m Tall and Wide” We strongly back up this time-tested advice. Before I explain more, here is a list of similar questions:
  • How tall do avocado trees grow?
  • I am concerned about avocado tree size.
  • How high do avocado trees grow?
Avocado growing experts found keeping avocado trees small or dwarfed, is the way to go. As a result, it is now practiced by all commercial growers, all over the world. In fact, keeping avocado trees small helps them fruit even more per canopy area. That’s why avopro is trying to bring the same success to home avocado growers and gardeners.
