If you have only one avocado tree, you'll probably need another tree to pollinate it. Male and female flowers open at different times on the same variety of tree. Avocados as a rule can't self-pollinate, and if you have 20 avocados of the same variety, you'll have few (if any)fruits. Avocados are either A-type flowering or B-type, according to which flowers open at which time. Figure out whether yours is an A or a B tree, and plant the other type near it.
