the last pic is the oroblanco in an old bottom half of a mulch container that I recycled into a square air pruning pot.

Costco has them on sale for only $9.59 in my area. I bought 10 of them. I might go back and buy another half dozen.

I dig your yard man. I spouted some dwarf myer lemons this month. I was hoping they don't take years to fruit.

Are your avocados still doing well and filling out those 30 gallon pots? I've been wanting to grow avocado but my family is very skeptical they will grow well here. If you can grow them there, I should be able to in Sac Town! Are they grafted to hardier rootstock?

I was going to suggest you grab a blood orange but read in the thread you got one. Mine produces like mad and it's not even in a big pot. I plan to get a Cara Cara and some red grapefruit to keep it company.

My avocado's are doing well but I can say they are the hardest fruit tree to grow in containers. But it can be done successfully. If you come out this month I'll give you some pointers.
