Sir Prize Avocado Tree (Type B)
Harvest Premium Avocados 4-6 Weeks Earlier Than Hass
The Sir Prize avocado tree is a smart choice if you want large, buttery avocados earlier than the popular Hass variety, with better cold performance and a longer home harvest window in California.
Sir Prize produces a Hass type avocado with rich, nutty flavor, creamy flesh, and a small seed that gives you more edible fruit per avocado. The fruit has dark green skin when developing, then turns black as the fruit ripens, giving it the familiar look many growers want from a premium avocado.
In many California gardens, Sir Prize helps start the avocado harvest season sooner-often 4-6 weeks before Hass varieties. Sir Prize avocados typically ripen from late winter to early spring (January through April), hitting markets months before traditional Hass avocados. When planted with complementary avocado trees such as Hass, Lamb Hass, or other varieties, it can help extend a backyard harvest from February through October in favorable California climates.
For home gardeners in San Diego, coastal valleys, warmer inland areas, and protected spots near Palm Springs, Sir Prize offers a practical advantage: fresh avocados sooner, better cold tolerance, and high-quality fruit without relying only on store-bought avocados.
Why You’ll Love Sir Prize Avocado
-
Earlier harvest timing – Sir Prize can produce fruit 4-6 weeks before Hass varieties, helping you enjoy fresh avocados at the beginning of the season instead of waiting for traditional Hass harvests.
-
Superior cold hardiness – This cold resistant grandchild of Hass tolerates temperatures between 25-32°Fbetter than Hass and can handle mild frost once established, especially when planted in a wind sheltered site.
-
Larger fruit with more flesh – Sir Prize is known for large fruit, creamy texture, and a small seed, giving you more buttery flesh per avocado than many previous commercial avocado selections.
-
Better storage after harvest – Sir Prize avocados do not oxidize as quickly as other varieties, making them better for longer storage after being picked and more useful for slicing, packed lunches, and guacamole prep.
-
Strong production potential – The Sir Prize avocado tree is known for its high yield and upright growth habit, making it suitable for growers who want a productive big tree rather than a low, sprawling avocado.
-
Excellent eating quality – The fruit has a thin skin that is deep green and turns black as it ripens, featuring a buttery texture and rich, nutty flavor close to Hass.
What Makes Sir Prize Different
Most avocado trees make you choose between flavor, cold tolerance, harvest timing, and tree shape. Some early-season varieties like Bacon are useful, but they do not always deliver the dark-skinned, creamy eating quality people expect from Hass. Other varieties taste excellent but struggle with cold sensitivity or late harvest timing.
Sir Prize is different because it was developed to give growers earlier fruit, better cold performance, and Hass-like quality in one great variety, making it a smart companion to hardy landscape choices like African Sumac and other durable trees.
-
Bred by UCR for California growing conditions – This avocado variety originated from a University of California Riverside (UCR) breeding program, which is known for producing high-quality avocado cultivars. Sir Prize came from an open-pollinated breeding line with a Hass seedling as its maternal parent, which is why it is often described as a cold resistant grandchild of Hass.
-
Upright growth habit – The tree grows tall and strong rather than wide and sprawling. That upright growth makes pruning easier, supports good production, and works well for growers who want a large tree, a managed backyard small tree, or even a productive evergreen shade tree over time, similar to other mature trees for instant landscape impact.
-
Premium fruit characteristics – The fruit has thin, dark green skin that turns black, a creamy and buttery texture, low fiber, and a rich nutty flavor. It looks and eats like a premium Hass type avocado while ripening months earlier in many markets.
-
Useful flowering pattern – Sir Prize avocados produce Type B flowers, which boost cross pollination when planted alongside Type A varieties. A complementary variety such as Hass, Gwen, or Lamb can help increase fruit set and improve reliability during spring flowering.
-
Not just a surprise name – The name Sir Prize may sound playful, but there is no doubt about its practical value: earlier harvest, strong fruit quality, and a form that fits California backyards and boutique production.
Growing Sir Prize Avocado
-
Plant in the right location
Choose full sun, well drained soil, and a wind sheltered site. Sir Prize performs best when the ground drains quickly and the roots are not sitting in excess moisture. Sandy loam or improved soil is ideal, and thoughtful placement alongside evergreen privacy trees and hedges can help create a protected microclimate. Avoid heavy clay unless drainage is corrected before the tree is planted. -
Water deeply during establishment
During the first growing season, water deeply to encourage an extensive root system. Keep soil evenly moist but never soggy. Once the tree is established, reduce frequency and continue deep irrigation during hot weather and fruit development. -
Mulch to conserve moisture
Apply a thick layer of mulch around the tree to conserve moisture, protect surface roots, and support healthy soil life. Keep mulch pulled back from the trunk to avoid rot. A slow release fertilizer can support steady growth during the growing season. -
Expect natural growth changes
Avocado trees may show periodic leaf drop, especially during seasonal transitions, transplant adjustment, or spring growth flushes. New buds, lighter green stipules, and young leaves may appear before the canopy fills back in. -
Plan for pollination and harvest
For better fruit set, plant Sir Prize near a Type A avocado tree. Sir Prize avocados typically ripen from late winter to early spring, while smart variety pairing in California can help stretch your home harvest from February through October once mature.

Shipping options for plants, including the Sir Prize avocado tree, often vary based on the size of the order and the destination, with many retailers offering free shipping for larger purchases. Many online nurseries, including those selling the Sir Prize avocado tree, may have specific shipping policies that include restrictions based on climate zones to ensure plant survival during transit. Some retailers may offer local pickup options for the Sir Prize avocado tree, allowing customers to collect their orders directly from the nursery, which can be a faster alternative to shipping, especially when combining avocado purchases with other California-native trees and shrubs.

-
A productive upright tree for California gardens
-

Harvest Premium Avocados 4-6 Weeks Earlier Than Hass
The Sir Prize avocado tree is a smart choice if you want large, buttery avocados earlier than the popular Hass variety, with better cold performance and a longer home harvest window in California.
Sir Prize produces a Hass type avocado with rich, nutty flavor, creamy flesh, and a small seed that gives you more edible fruit per avocado. The fruit has dark green skin when developing, then turns black as the fruit ripens, giving it the familiar look many growers want from a premium avocado.
In many California gardens, Sir Prize helps start the avocado harvest season sooner-often 4-6 weeks before Hass varieties. Sir Prize avocados typically ripen from late winter to early spring (January through April), hitting markets months before traditional Hass avocados. When planted with complementary avocado trees such as Hass, Lamb Hass, or other varieties, it can help extend a backyard harvest from February through October in favorable California climates.
For home gardeners in San Diego, coastal valleys, warmer inland areas, and protected spots near Palm Springs, Sir Prize offers a practical advantage: fresh avocados sooner, better cold tolerance, and high-quality fruit without relying only on store-bought avocados.
Why You’ll Love Sir Prize Avocado
-
Earlier harvest timing – Sir Prize can produce fruit 4-6 weeks before Hass varieties, helping you enjoy fresh avocados at the beginning of the season instead of waiting for traditional Hass harvests.
-
Superior cold hardiness – This cold resistant grandchild of Hass tolerates temperatures between 25-32°Fbetter than Hass and can handle mild frost once established, especially when planted in a wind sheltered site.
-
Larger fruit with more flesh – Sir Prize is known for large fruit, creamy texture, and a small seed, giving you more buttery flesh per avocado than many previous commercial avocado selections.
-
Better storage after harvest – Sir Prize avocados do not oxidize as quickly as other varieties, making them better for longer storage after being picked and more useful for slicing, packed lunches, and guacamole prep.
-
Strong production potential – The Sir Prize avocado tree is known for its high yield and upright growth habit, making it suitable for growers who want a productive big tree rather than a low, sprawling avocado.
-
Excellent eating quality – The fruit has a thin skin that is deep green and turns black as it ripens, featuring a buttery texture and rich, nutty flavor close to Hass.
What Makes Sir Prize Different
Most avocado trees make you choose between flavor, cold tolerance, harvest timing, and tree shape. Some early-season varieties like Bacon are useful, but they do not always deliver the dark-skinned, creamy eating quality people expect from Hass. Other varieties taste excellent but struggle with cold sensitivity or late harvest timing.
Sir Prize is different because it was developed to give growers earlier fruit, better cold performance, and Hass-like quality in one great variety, making it a smart companion to hardy landscape choices like African Sumac and other durable trees.
-
Bred by UCR for California growing conditions – This avocado variety originated from a University of California Riverside (UCR) breeding program, which is known for producing high-quality avocado cultivars. Sir Prize came from an open-pollinated breeding line with a Hass seedling as its maternal parent, which is why it is often described as a cold resistant grandchild of Hass.
-
Upright growth habit – The tree grows tall and strong rather than wide and sprawling. That upright growth makes pruning easier, supports good production, and works well for growers who want a large tree, a managed backyard small tree, or even a productive evergreen shade tree over time, similar to other mature trees for instant landscape impact.
-
Premium fruit characteristics – The fruit has thin, dark green skin that turns black, a creamy and buttery texture, low fiber, and a rich nutty flavor. It looks and eats like a premium Hass type avocado while ripening months earlier in many markets.
-
Useful flowering pattern – Sir Prize avocados produce Type B flowers, which boost cross pollination when planted alongside Type A varieties. A complementary variety such as Hass, Gwen, or Lamb can help increase fruit set and improve reliability during spring flowering.
-
Not just a surprise name – The name Sir Prize may sound playful, but there is no doubt about its practical value: earlier harvest, strong fruit quality, and a form that fits California backyards and boutique production.
Growing Sir Prize Avocado
-
Plant in the right location
Choose full sun, well drained soil, and a wind sheltered site. Sir Prize performs best when the ground drains quickly and the roots are not sitting in excess moisture. Sandy loam or improved soil is ideal, and thoughtful placement alongside evergreen privacy trees and hedges can help create a protected microclimate. Avoid heavy clay unless drainage is corrected before the tree is planted. -
Water deeply during establishment
During the first growing season, water deeply to encourage an extensive root system. Keep soil evenly moist but never soggy. Once the tree is established, reduce frequency and continue deep irrigation during hot weather and fruit development. -
Mulch to conserve moisture
Apply a thick layer of mulch around the tree to conserve moisture, protect surface roots, and support healthy soil life. Keep mulch pulled back from the trunk to avoid rot. A slow release fertilizer can support steady growth during the growing season. -
Expect natural growth changes
Avocado trees may show periodic leaf drop, especially during seasonal transitions, transplant adjustment, or spring growth flushes. New buds, lighter green stipules, and young leaves may appear before the canopy fills back in. -
Plan for pollination and harvest
For better fruit set, plant Sir Prize near a Type A avocado tree. Sir Prize avocados typically ripen from late winter to early spring, while smart variety pairing in California can help stretch your home harvest from February through October once mature.

-
Cold-climate avocado enthusiasts who need a hardier tree that tolerates mild frost better than the popular Hass variety.

Edible landscape designers who want a tree that can function as both a fruit producer and an attractive evergreen shade tree, often pairing it with other long-lived fruit like a pomegranate tree for multi-season harvest.
If you want buttery avocados with nutty flavor, earlier harvest timing, and a tree bred for California performance, Sir Prize fits your needs-especially when planted in full sun, protected from harsh wind, and paired with a complementary variety for stronger pollination.
Frequently Asked Questions
How cold hardy is Sir Prize compared to other avocado varieties?
Sir Prize is more cold hardy than Hass and tolerates temperatures between 25-32°F once established. It can tolerate mild frost better than many Hass trees, but young trees still need protection during cold snaps, especially during the first few winters.
When will my tree start producing fruit after planting?
A grafted Sir Prize avocado tree may begin producing fruit in a few years under good conditions. Production depends on tree size, planting location, soil quality, watering, fertilization, and whether a compatible avocado tree is nearby for cross pollination.
Do I need another avocado tree for pollination?
You may get some fruit from one tree, but Sir Prize avocados produce Type B flowers, which boost cross-pollination when planted alongside Type A varieties. Planting near Hass, Gwen, Lamb, or Lamb Hass can increase fruit set and improve harvest reliability.
How does the taste compare to store-bought Hass avocados?
Sir Prize has a creamy, buttery texture and rich, nutty flavor that is very close to Hass. The fruit has thin skin that is deep green and turns black as it ripens, with a small seed and generous flesh.
When does the fruit ripen?
Sir Prize avocados typically ripen from late winter to early spring, usually January through April. In California, growing Sir Prize alongside other avocado trees can help extend the overall harvest season from February through October.
