9. Avocados – The Surprising Contender
Dwarf avocado trees such as Warts or Little Ko can fruit in containers after three to four years, producing 20-30 avocados annually once mature. They require well-draining soil and patience but offer immense savings—organic avocados cost $5-$8 each in stores. Their self-pollinating nature means only one tree is needed, and they can be brought indoors in colder climates.
