Two side by side large Avocado Trees

You are both spot on ! These are two very old trees that do not produce much fruit, which I suspect led me to Avocado!650FF1F9-4651-440C-A363-006786A7601F.thumb.jpeg.18a91c6a30270adcbb5f42ec715230a8.jpeg

Younger smaller tree actually has nice fruit. I am getting pretty silly when I cannot distinguish an Avocado tree from a Mango!

Now that folks were kind enough to correct my mistaken belief that these trees were avocados, I have researched the Florida Champion Tree Website. To my surprise, the current Florida Champion is 47 feet tall with a crown spread of 47.5 feet and a circumference of 108 feet. 
 

While that is a large tree, these two (2) Mangoes side by side both have far larger trunks than the Florida Champ. I believe they are both close to 60 feet tall and they go on forever. One more shot of the stretch of one of these trees for perspective:535177F4-0ADA-4B0C-8A68-AA425C9B7387.thumb.jpeg.1b30f99cdbc830d6182a953d866adb2d.jpeg
