Description
Hayes is similar to Hass, but is larger, the skin is glossier, pebbled, rough, thick and becomes brown/purple when ripe. The flesh is a nice rich yellow with a buttery flavour. The plant is hardy, and can grow large if left unpruned, but responds well to an annual prune to keep it a manageable size.
