Enough people were evidently successful with this that if you take a look over the fence into many city gardens, it’s not an unusual sight to see an avocado tree in full fruit.
Eventually outgrowing their living-room homes and relegated to being planted outside, these plants have thrived remarkably well in the protected microclimate cities provide.
How-To
All you need to do is to half bury your seed in a pot of gritty seed compost, pointy end up. Give it a thorough watering, cover the pot with a plastic bag to seal in the warmth and moisture, and then leave it alone.
Kept in a warm place, such as a well-insulated windowsill, you should begin to see signs of germination in two to four weeks. This starts with the seed splitting open, followed by a tiny sprout emerging from the center of the split a few days later. At this point, remove the plastic cover and keep it in a spot with bright, indirect light.
This way you will have a pretty (and evidently super trendy) houseplant for free in a matter of few weeks.
