Stewart is a Mexican type avocado that is fairly cold-hardy, mature trees doing well into the mid 20s. The nutty rich flavor is excellent. Stewart is easy to peel and has a very small seed. One of the more compact Avocado plants, it is ideal for those with more limited space. Stewart is similar to the Mexicola avocado, pear-shaped with thin, dark purple skin. High quality flesh is vibrant greenish-yellow in color, with a nutty flavor and nearly twenty percent oil content. The fruit averages six to ten ounces in size. The Stewart avocado tree is compact, strong, and vigorous, and it is more frost-resistant than many other avocado varieties. It grows upright, around 20 ft tall, and is a consistent bearer. Stewart avocados are available in the late fall and early winter. Stewart is thought to be a Mexicola seedling.
Stewart is listed as an A-Type avocado but has shown B-Type characteristics. This is an excellent avocado variety for colder areas.
