OWN A SEEDLESS AVOCADO TREE. We have 11 sure-to-survive-and-fruit SEEDLESS AVOCADO SEEDLINGS. When you own one of these seedlings you are owning the legacy of the late Domingo Umali, a plant scientist who made the development of the seedless avocado his life’s work. Any seedling with 6 leaves are considered “sure to survive” and these ones have way, way more than that.

Back read the story:
THE STORY OF DOMINGO’S SEEDLESS HEIRLOOM AVOCADOS. The way unique citrus orange varieties are propagated in Nueva Vizcaya, the Citrus Capital of the Philippines, requires dedication and half the years you have left in this life. This is not something you dial in today and receive in a convenient package within 48 hours—or your money back. Through a process of selective elimination in between long periods of waiting—months, even years—that final variety with all the desired qualities shines on the bush like Eden’s bright golden apple. Sweet plus juicy, sweet plus an extra-ordinary resistance to pests, sweet and fast-growing, or bless the hand that is able to do it, all of the above. While some families pass on jewels and diamonds to the next generation as a symbol of patriarchal foresight and assiduousness, farmer families pass on that one special variety of fruit to the next generation. A treasured family heirloom to be guarded close.
THE FARMER FAMILY. That thing with oranges, the Umali family, incredibly did with avocados. I mean, oranges you can improve on but avocados? It’s perfect, fruit God’s sake, what is there to improve on? Well the late Domingo Umali, a public school teacher, had this brilliant idea one day in 1960 to create the perfect avocado. With no formal training in agriculture, living in a time when “Google” was a numeric term and not a search engine, he taught himself grafting first by working with easy calamansi and later with the more challenging mango. This weird, wonderful avocado was his life’s work, completed towards the end. Fruit long like cucumbers (“the better to scoop you up, my dear”), fruit sweet like there’s honey in there (“the better to diet with you, my dear”), ond fruit that’s extra maligat (viscous), because why not dear? Domingo succeeded in putting these three qualities together after several attempts over several decades—Domingo managed a fourth, final, fantastic quality that makes this variety truly inheritable. TWO YEARS TO FRUIT after you get it, guaranteed. Because we all cannot live or wait forever, can we? This is the avocado of avocados!SEEDLESS AVOCADO SEEDLINGS — P1,100 for 1 seedling
