Little Cado Dwarf Avocado Tree Five Gallon The Little Cado dwarf avocado tree is a great variety to plant if fresh avocados are to your liking and space is a problem. A self fertile variety. This dwarf avocado variety is great for large containers, as it only grows to about 8 to 10 feet tall. Use on patios or decks or plant in the ground. Best in loose, rich, well draining soil. The Little Cados shorter size makes it easier to protect if frost may be a problem. The fruit is medium sized, green, and good tasting. Fruits in the summer (May to Sept) when you can enjoy the avocados for picnics and the Fourth of July. If used in a container, plant in good quality potting soil only and dont forget the drainage holes. The Little Cado bears young. All plants from Clifton's Nursery shipped potted in soil to ensure the best possible start when planted in yard or garden.
