I often see (on the internet) people growing avocado plants from a pit. Several ways to do it are shown in youtube videos.
So I think many people must have an avocado house plant now ... Anyway: I managed to get an avocado plant to grow from a pit, about seven years ago. And here's a photo of how it looks now:


Please show your avocado house plants here!

(maybe next thread about the Aloe vera house plant?)

Very well! You can show photos as soon as there's one small root coming ...
