Reed Avocado is described as Reed Avocado, Hass's Rounder and Creamier Cousin.
First question normally being asked, how's the taste? It's rated as Excellent!
Bill Sidnam of the Los Angeles Times characterizes it as "an incredibly rich, buttery flavor.". The texture is buttery, and the flavor is bold, rich and nutty.
The Reed avocado is one of the larger known varieties of avocado. The round fruit can weigh up to 600 gm!. Its thick, green, slightly pebbled skin is easy to peel, and its flesh is a pale golden-yellow. It has a relatively large seed and seed cavity, but its robust size allows it to still carry a substantial amount of edible flesh.
Second question, how tall is the tree?
Left to nature, it can grow to about 12 M. For Home growers, Reed can be prune down to 2.5 M and still be a good producer. Reed avocado trees are slender and upright.
What is the disadvantage? Reed ripe in Green so it's a bit difficult to tell when it's ripe 😁. Shelve life is short, about 5 days after plucking, but can be extended much longer by refrigerating. Reed store very well in refrigeration, even when cut. For better storage, leave the pit in.
One way to check ripeness is to lightly flick the piece of stem at the end of the fruit. If it falls out, the fruit is ripe. You can double check by pushing a toothpick into the cavity where the stem flicked out. If it goes in without much resistance, the fruit is ripe. Another way is to squeeze the fruit gently. An unripe fruit is hard, a ripe fruit has a little bit of 'give'.
