Avocadoes after a cold winter. I have two fantastic seedlings that were crossed either with Wilma or Opal, one growing outside and one in the polytunnel I also have a mexicola seedling growing outdoors. This winter was a cold winter and the mexicola seedling looks pretty dead right now. Mexicola seedling looking pretty dead despite being 5 years old and having quite a trunk already. Each year it grows and then dies back down. Fantastic seedling. Only 2 years old, so much younger than the mexicola seedling, only half died down and has a new green sprout. It is much cold hardier than the mexicola. Second fantastic seedling in the polytunnel. It took a good hit but it's definitely not dead. At the bottom of it is my attempt to root layer a low growing branch in a pot that still looks alive and has a green shoot.
