Avocado Trees
We’ve been looking to plant lots of fruit trees on our property, but tree “nurseries” have been a bit harder to come by then you would think. Remember science class when you were in 4th grade? Where you would stick some toothpicks in an avocado pit, half-submerge it in a cup of water and a tree would start growing? Well, that’s what we’ve been doing 
.
(The avocado tree pictured here was actually a gift from Joan [Thanks, Joan!]. Our avocado pits are still sprouting.)
There was a cute frog hopping around in the pot when I took this picture, too. Bonus!

I might have a contact with a nursery if you’re interested
Let me know what plants you’re looking for and I’ll ask my guy. Seriously.

We want lots of everything!
I think we are most interested in fruit trees at the moment. I really want a breadfruit tree too…

I’ll make a call on Monday and ask my guy what he’s got available and what he can get.

Quickie update for you guys… my local relatives have breadfruit trees in their house in El Yunque. If you want one, they’re willing to share
