When using avocado tree is an extremely marginal climates, using a seedling known variety makes some sense. I found out that most all of the trees at the Duke Orchard we're grown from seed and not grafted and they come out remarkably homogeneous but they will take longer to fruit as you say
I'm guessing they must be somewhat self firtle, since they are similar in inbred trees? Are they A or B type polinisers? Just chopped the hass scion off its duke rootstock. wondering what avo mates it might like?
Wish I could buy one off you but I’m in Australia and you don’t sell to Australia but I’m pre sure we can get duke here in Australia but it’s just hard to find.
Yes, as I drive between San Diego and Northern California quite often I can generally give you delivery rate so when you’re ready to order just email me at gary@goldengatepalms.com. Thanks
The trees up in the Oroville orchard seem to be all coming true to type. They have the same exact leaf and it looks like the same exact fruit regardless of what tree you look at. The daughter of the farmer who originally planted these trees told me that he just sprouted them from seed. Also, the avocado trees are mixed into an orange tree orchard and there are many naturalizing Avocado trees out of the orchard grid which are obvious random seedlings and those trees have grown up to exhibit the same qualities and foliage and fruit quality as the parents. I believe it is such an inbred population that there is very little variation between generations of plants.
@@ScaryHairyGary Ha! The Duke wasn't Amish was he? Thanks for the information. Now I want one of these trees. Be pretty cool if you could even mail seeds.
I love the dukes but cant find seeds or trees to buy . I remember biting into the skin and all " after washing " but OMG so good
Yes, they are delicious
Great video bro cool avocados Duke I like it i’ve never had them but I like it LOL
Duke sounds great for cold/hot climate, also Aravaipa takes 14-120 temps, but sounds like Duke has a better taste.
Thanks for video Gary! Is there a way I can get 2-3 seeds from this cultivar? Much appreciated!
Gary do you know much about the brazos belle avocado tree? Is that a pure Mexican variety or a cross between Mexican and Guatemalan?
How can I get one plant ?
The fruit from the Duke at the Oroville train station doesn't crack.
I called golden gate palms 10-31-23 they have no Duke for sale.
Thank you Gary how can I buy a plant from you you a Duke avocado ??
THIS is what I've been waiting for! :D
If you don't graft it. It's gonna take years to produce fruit

The camera man looks like Raden from Mortal Combat.
When will the Dukes be ready for sale?
Save me a Duke and little cado! They’d be perfect for me in the valley at the sounds of it.

@@ScaryHairyGary do sell seeds internationally? I know you don’t sell trees but just curious if you have exporting license to sell seeds to Australia?
