Avocado trees really need to be babied. They need to kept on the north side of the house in the shade. If they are planted in the ground they need to have a bigger tree over them for shade. The wind will really play havoc with the leaves. They need to be protected from the harsh winds. They do not like cold weather. A green house is a good place for a tree. Needs LOTS of water.
