Avocado from my Garden

 I was thrilled to get a crop of avocados for the first time from my tree yesterday! The tree has taken fifteen years to deliver!
 Avocado is also called Alligator Pear and Butterfruit. But the birds are not excited about this foreign fruit. They throng the teak trees next to the avocado tree and peck at the small teak fruit. Now that the mango season is over, the birds are looking for other fruit.
 The Golden Challice vine is full of enormous , faintly fragrant flowers.

My thanks to the team of Our World Tuesday , where we learn of many interesting things happenning in different parts of our world.
I also thank Mrs.Nesbitt , the originator of ABCWednesday  and Roger and his team who do so much work to carry it forward.

  3. That is one slow avocado tree! Still, really awesome. I wish we could grow them here; I buy them every couple of days.

  4. Now I live in hope that one day my avocado tree will deliver! I know one can not hurry up nature, but 15 years... Looks like I've got a few years to go. Thank you for showing your fruit
