Avocado Bacon. A large Mexican variety with dark-skinned medium sized fruits, and a rich creamy flavor. It is very cold hardy, late-producing variety of Avocado tree with exceptional fruit.
Bacon Avocado is named after James Bacon, who developed it in 1954. It’s a highly productive Avocado tree with a lovely upright and spreading habit. Its dark green, glossy leaves lend an attractive, tropical appeal to the 15-20 feet of height, so you won’t want to miss having one of these in your yard.
The outstanding feature of the Bacon Avocado is its fruit. The oval fruits ripen in late fall and into spring. The fruits are easy to peel and have a light, subtle flavor that compliments almost any dish. Another outstanding feature of the Bacon avocado tree is its angelic sweeping branches which helps keep the tree shorter and easier to pick its fruit.
