Stories from Nature
The avocado is an evergreen tree of the Lauraceae family, native to Mexico and Central America. Characterized by a lush canopy and deep green leaves, it produces fruits with creamy flesh, from which the distinctive avocado oil is extracted. Known and used for millennia by ancient Mesoamerican civilizations, it presents a botanical curiosity: its small flowers open in two distinct phases—first female, then male—a unique natural mechanism that promotes cross-pollination.
