Avocados

[edit]

Hi. I don't think that the Theosophists can take credit for introducing the avocado to California. Here is the history according to the University of California. They were involved early on (1922 to 1923), according to the California Avocado Society. I tagged this statement "citation needed" for now. -SusanLesch (talk) 03:02, 31 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Here is another source [1] supporting the statement that avocados were first planted in California by Dr Thomas White in San Gabriel and Judge R. B. Ord in Santa Barbara. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 156.29.126.141 (talk) 19:48, 13 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

That's good evidence. If others were planting avocados in the 1800s, the Theosophists cannot have introduced them. I'll delete the claim - which has been unsourced for a long time. Thanks for tracking this down. --MelanieN (talk) 20:00, 13 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
