  • Patent number: PP37012
    Abstract: The present invention introduces a novel and distinct variety of Persea americana Mill., named ‘BeeOne’, which emerged from a chance seedling discovered in the Western Cape of South Africa, with commendable commercial traits, including late maturation, thick green skin, and characteristics from both the Mexican and Guatemalan horticultural traits. The traits of ‘BeeOne’ have been systematically documented from 2018 to the present. Key distinguishing features of ‘BeeOne’ include its very late ripening and obovate fruit shape, which possesses a notably thick, highly pebbled skin. The fruit is dark green with a flattened base, offering an excellent shelf life and a creamy/nutty flavor profile, complemented by a favorable pulp-to-seed ratio. The tree shape of ‘BeeOne’ is characterized as upright to moderately spreading, featuring one to three central leaders, which enhances its suitability for high-density planting and interplanting alongside A-flower types, ensuring effective cross-pollination.
