Description
The Ettinger avocado tree is very vigorous, and as a heavy bearer of fruit it is often the most profitable B variety of many orchards. Ettinger avocados are similar to Fuerte avocados, pear-shaped with smooth, thin, bright green skin, and pale green flesh. The tree has an upright growing habit with little spreading, and has the same tendency as the Fuerte variety to sometimes produce seedless fruits, called "cukes".
