The Wurtz dwarf Avocado Tree should be suitable.

It is said to be "good for the back yard or container growing."

You are more then welcome to put your email address down on this page to be emailed or receive and sms the moment they are ready for sale:

If you are able to grow the other varieties I would assume you should be ok with the Wurtz.


The sweetest mulberry I have had is the Mulberry - Dwarf Red Shahtoot it is far sweeter then the black mulberries.

If you use half wine barrels you can grow just about any type I believe. It would then become a matter of trimming it yearly and the way you fed it.

Hi Arnie,
You are best to ask on this board:
http://tropicalfruitforum.com/index.php?board=1.0
Floridians and Fellow Caribbean growers should be able to give you the best advice.

Arnie BJ is correct and the assemblage of avos in Florida (and WI/Mexico) and sophistication of avo growing there is way beyond that of Australia.None of ours have WI blood (sap), being cooler guatemalan and mexican types,unlike your neck of the woods.Many nurseries have varieties listed with size,temperature tolerances and oil content of fruit.

Hello. Can you please advise what dwarf varieties of persimmon, avocado can I grow at Old Bar on the east Coast of NSW. What is the best variety of blueberry and low chill dwarf pears. Of these fruits do any of them require two for pollination and fruit? Many thanks
