(November 19, 2024) Fall update, Nov 18 2024 -- It looks so good! This little tree seems to be recovering well from whatever rodent tried to chop it down last year. It sent up multiple shoots. I should probably figure out how & when to prune avocados at some point

(July 6, 2024) Photo update, 5/22/24 -- It survived being cut off near the base AND the winter!! It's leafing out along the trunk and possibly from the roots as well!! What a fighter! :D

(February 10, 2024) Freeze damage 2/10/24 -- Surrounded tree with a "wall 'o water" and covered with row cover before the hard frost came through. We got down to at least 24* here. It's not looking great

(December 22, 2023) Rodent disaster :'( Sept 29, 2023 -- Some stupid rodent (a rabbit maybe?) has decapitated my beautiful healthy #134. It left ONE sunburned leaf on the sad little stump. I pruned it back and surrounded both trees with some chicken wire fencing. Will try rooting cuttings of the seedling.

(December 22, 2023) Sept. 15, 2023 update -- Noticed something had taken some nibbles of avocado leaves. (I often have deer and rabbits chewing up other plants, could be one of those?) Apparently it wasn't very tasty
