The new variety produces fruit which is larger and more oval than fruit from other Mexican varieties and which has light green skin on maturity, as compared to other Mexican varieties whose skins turn purple.

I claim:

The new variety of avocado tree of the Mexican group substantially as described and illustrated herein, being distinguished for its ability to produce mature fruit having light green skin and to bring this fruit to maturity about two weeks earlier than the fruit of comparable early maturing avocado varieties in the same growing area.
