Not sure what variety this tree is, but it looks like it's a lila avocado. All avocados are hard to grow in zone 8. They will definitely need protection once you get anywhere below 30f. The other big thing about avocados is that they need good drainage. If you have clay soil, then this isn't an option for you and might need to consider a large container. Even if the tree services zone8, you have to remember that the fruit won't develop correctly in cold temperatures once they reach temps into the 20s. Most of the avocado fruit is usually ready around the end of winter, which makes it difficult to harvest. I recommend growing these in zone 9 or above.

Grow it for fun, not for fruit production. You will never recover what you spent for the amount of perceived savings from the fruit that you will consume in the future.

If you like, just peel the outer layer of the seed and place with soil it on a 3/5 gal pot. Water it often and you should have a 3 feet tree in 6 months.

Was going to get an avocado tree but 3 years for fruit. Will still think about it

Cold hardy seems misleading. In ground, these avocado trees are only hardy to zone 8 which is the West coast and parts of the American South.

Would this make a good house plant? Potentially an office?

Local nurseries and hardware stores are much cheaper than this...

you need a south facing window. it wouldn't work in my office because it only gets morning sun. but my house has a south facing sliding door where it can sit year round, but i take it outside if it's not going to be below 40 degrees. it can flower year round.

My personal experience is limited with this retailer. But I've heard bad things about them. Specifically here, they don't list the variety or rootstock. And yeah there are cold hardy Avocado varieties but it's marginal hardiness.
