Persea americana ‘Hass’
Avocado
Persea americana ‘Hass’ is the most commonly-grown avocado cultivar in the world. Its fruit has a very nutty, rich taste, and the flesh has a smooth texture with a thick skin-casing. When the fruit is ripe, the skin turns purple-black. It is typically harvested from late spring to early autumn. While it is self-fertile, it produces better crops when planted alongside Persea americana ‘Bacon’. Persea americana ‘Hass’ forms a thick canopy with a spreading habit. Persea americana is evergreen and native to Central America from Mexico to Costa Rica. Learn more about Persea americana.
