Has anyone grown an avocado seed long enough to get fruit from it?

1 Answer

Answer :

Gardeners can grow avocado from the large, round seeds within the fruit. In fact, many people do grow seedling plants from grocery store avocados, but the resulting tree may not be of the same type as the parent tree and may not produce fruit at all. That is because avocado trees are generally grafted onto rootstock. I have never been successful.
