Taste

The Super Hass Avocado offers a rich, creamy texture and a nutty, buttery flavor, which is highly prized among avocado enthusiasts. It has a slightly nutty taste with a smooth, creamy consistency that makes it ideal for various dishes, including guacamole, salads, and as a spread. Its flesh is a vibrant green, and it maintains a firm texture even as it ripens, which makes it versatile for both culinary and raw uses.

Why Plant a Type A and Type B Avocado Tree Together?

  1. Enhanced Pollination: Avocado trees are known for their unique flowering behavior, with flowers opening in either a male or female phase depending on the type. Type A avocados, like the Super Hass, have female flowers in the morning and male flowers in the afternoon. Planting a Type B avocado, which has female flowers in the afternoon and male flowers in the morning, allows for effective cross-pollination. This overlap in flowering times increases the likelihood of successful pollination, leading to better fruit set and yield.

  2. Improved Fruit Production: Cross-pollination between Type A and Type B avocado trees results in a higher fruit set. Since the flowers are open at different times, having both types ensures that there are compatible flowers available for pollination throughout the day, which enhances the overall fruit production and quality.

  3. Extended Harvest Season: By planting both types of avocado trees, you can extend the harvest period. The different flowering and fruiting times of Type A and Type B trees provide a longer window for fresh avocados, resulting in a more continuous supply of fruit from late summer through winter.
