Avocado Tonnage and Persea americana
Avocado Tonnage and Persea americana
The Tonnage avocado is a distinctive cultivar known for its remarkable productivity and sizable fruit yield, which is how it presumably got its name, suggesting it can produce a "tonnage" of fruit. This variety typically produces fruit that is large, with an oval to pear-shaped appearance. The skin of the Tonnage avocado is usually green, even when ripe, and has a texture that can range from smooth to slightly pebbled.
The flesh of the Tonnage avocado is creamy, buttery, and rich in flavor, with a high oil content that is common in many avocado varieties. It's prized for its excellent taste and texture, making it a favorite for both culinary professionals and home cooks. The seed inside is sizeable, as is typical with avocados, but the flesh-to-seed ratio is favorable, offering plenty of edible fruit.
Cultivation-wise, Tonnage avocados are appreciated for their resilience and adaptability. They thrive in warm climates typical of avocado-growing regions and require well-drained soil to prevent root rot. The tree itself is vigorous and can grow quite large, providing not only abundant fruit but also shade and ornamental value with its glossy, green leaves. It blooms with inconspicuous flowers that, under the right conditions, lead to heavy fruit set.
Gardeners and farmers value this variety for its relatively consistent and heavy bearing pattern, often yielding fruit in abundance annually or biennially, depending on the tree's care and local growing conditions. The harvest time can vary based on the geographical location but generally falls within the main avocado growing season.

Product is great. Didn't care for having to pay am extra $17 tariff to UPS to get it delivered, but I guess that's not your doing. Thank you Mr. President.
My new babay arrived safely and only lost two little leaves so far. The first one I ordered from different shop arrived with two leaves attached that fell off within ten minutes of unboxing and 22 leaves that had came off during shipping. So glad she arrived looking as beautiful as i was hoping. Also had a surprise red arrow syngonium cutting that’s beautiful. Also customer service was amazing. Will definitely order from them again. Hoghly recommend this shop.
Great flag and it works well on our hangar ceiling. A little worried it wouldn't arrive in time for our event but it did.
Enjoyed putting them together
I think I’m in love! This beauty came delicately packaged. Seemed to have no stress at all from shipping. I live in Miami, I was worried about shipping all the way from California. To my surprise she arrived well taken care of already. I can tell this grower takes pride in caring for these babies. Shipping was fast. I just ordered again same day!
