No matter what I do to it I can't seem to kill it. It was started from a seed years ago--not by me--and just keeps going. It would be nice if it would get a few avocados on it, but it never has.RunningFromMoosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02634860397653475751noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2687899793433885679.post-29450876298514017032014-02-07T13:10:08.967-06:002014-02-07T13:10:08.967-06:00That's sounds good.

I kept it indoors because of our cold winters here in Michigan, and it did well -- until I 'inherited' my sister's two cats They insisted on using the plant as a porta-potty when they didn't feel like going all the way to their litter, and the tree died a sad and terrible death. I've tried many seeds since then and none has even sprouted. I figure the word is out in the avocado network that I'm not to be trusted. Maybe this will be the year I can redeem myself. :)gpchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18054854655973836794noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2687899793433885679.post-26217950890601688462014-02-03T05:55:37.645-06:002014-02-03T05:55:37.645-06:00I usually start a few sweet potatoes to add to out...I usually start a few sweet potatoes to add to outdoor planters.
