Pinkerton Avocado Tree, Five Gallon Pinkerton avocado is a variety ripening October to January, a tree producing excellent flavored flesh approximately 8 to 14 ounces. Heavy producer. Pinkerton is hardy to the upper twenties, so a good consideration for home or back yard use where its placement near fences, sheds, or near other residential structures should provide it enough warmth to sail through most winters in many areas of the country. If your winters are extreme, consider in a container where you could enjoy its fruit for many years before it gets too large and would need to go eventually in the ground. Pair with Fuerte which bears November to June for fresh avocados fall, winter and spring. Shipped potted in soil for best possible results when planted in yard, garden or container.
