hmmmm, i don't know what would cause that, except in my experience avocados are more zone 10 type plants.... they actually grow into beautiful trees (my kids have spent lots of time in them )

Drooping leaves is a symptom of stress in plants. It could be due to overwatering, underwatering, soil dryness, excessive fertilizer or other soluble salts in the soil, compacted soil, or a poorly drained container.
For additional info, please see Problem Ddiagnosis for Avocado from the University of California [UC] Master Gardeners' Handbook .

Deaner, Just so you know, I'm going to move your post into the FRUITS AND VEGETABLE SECTION, although Papito gave you some great information.. and don't forget to do a FORUM SEARCH on AVOCADO's too...
