The Mexicola Grande Avocado is a remarkable cultivar known for its frost resistance and unique flavor. Here are some key. Mexicola Grande can withstand temperatures as low as 17º F, making it one of the hardiest avocado varieties. Despite its name, Mexicola Grande produces small-sized avocados, typically weighing between 0.25 and 0.75 lb. However, these avocados are up to 25% larger than its parent, Mexicola.
Flavor: The glossy black, paper-thin skin of Mexicola Grande is edible but not ideal for scooping. Inside, you’ll find pale yellowish-green flesh with mild amounts of fiber. Its oil content (18% to 20%) contributes to a buttery texture, perfect for guacamole.
Mexicola Grande trees have a vigorous, upright, and spreading growth habit. The leaves also possess a pleasant anise aroma.Mexicola Grande is the only avocado cultivar with edible skin and leaves. The leaves are used to impart a unique flavor in Mexican recipes.
Watering: Mexicola Grande trees do not like to have wet feet, so good drainage is essential. Water newly planted seedlings every alternate day in the first week, then reduce watering frequency to twice a week for the next 2-3 months
Cold Tolerance: Mexicola Grande is highly cold tolerant and can withstand temperatures as low as 17º F, making it one of the hardiest avocados available. It’s a great option for USDA Hardiness Zones 8B and above32.
