Though it isn't an actual contender for the #ThickTrunkTuesday label, this is the trunk of our largest greenhouse multi-graft avocado tree. Check out the change in bark texture at the original graft union (red arrow).

It's not even December yet, but somehow we already have the first #avocado seedling poking its new leaves out, ready for spring. This is the first of over 150 germinating seeds to sprout leaves this year! Meet #No351, a seedling of the "Daughter" tree (which is itself a seedling of the old #Gainesville tree that used to grow on the University of Florida campus):

@bike@regenerate.social @plants@a.gup.pe more accurately, a wild cousin of the avocado. The pre-domesticated avocado was likely not Persea schiedeana, it was a small version of Mexican avocado, and there are still some "wild" populations in the Mexican highlands that appear to have had minimal mixing with the domesticated genes. Here's one example, from this paper:

@MelodyWainscott@zirk.us they are mostly seedlings of allegedly cold-hardy cultivars like #DelRio, #Joey, and #Mexicola. There are also a handful of #Fuerte seedlings in this batch, which probably are not hardy enough for our project, but still hardier than some avocados.

Here are most of the #avocado trees ready to be distributed in spring. They haven't come in the greenhouse yet, and with a mild El Niño winter, it's possible they will be outside for the entire winter...

Been potting up the newly germinated #avocado seeds, destined to be trees for 2025 distribution. Here's one of them out of the ~150 seeds in this year's seed batch, this is a seed from the "Daughter" tree in #Gainesville FL, which is itself a seedling of the "Gainesville" cultivar.

Replying to @chancerydaily@masto.ai
@chancerydaily@masto.ai I kind of love the typo in your FediTips hashtag so that it's "Fedi Uncles" in Spanish instead
