| 'Wilson' was named for horticulturalist and avocado specialist Wilson Popenoe who introduced this variety and many others to Florida. It is an old variety that has faded into obscurity despite being a fantastic flavored fruit. Mediocre production, large fruit size, and a bizarre shape make this variety unpopular with commercial producers. Contrarily they are great for dooryard growers, because they are a great quality fruit and production is more than adequate with yields of 100-200 lbs. per season. |
