Re: coconuts in south florida?
yes coconuts produce all year. Miami used to be lined with Jamaican Tall coconut trees but alot have died from lethal yellowing. many of the dooryard trees i see are short and fatter (Fiji dwarf?)
i can see probably about 6 - 40' tall plus Avocado trees from my front door where i live in a small dooryard community. they are the Carribean type that are big and green and less flavorful than small Mexican hass. our climate is very humid and wet and Mexican types do very poor here and dont produce much. there are many hybrid types or Guatamalan types that grow here and produce oily skin like Brogdon, but California Haas definitely are the best IMO.
the big green carribean avocados are good sliced in salad with some dressing.
