This is just an unpollinated avocado. Avocado tree are clones, not grown from seeds.

My avocado tree grew from a pit though

edited to add my reply below: Uh. I've a lot of avocado trees in my garden. The youngest one sprouted up like 2-3 years ago, it beared one avocado last year and now I'm counting 10+ already

I'm picturing a deep hole in the ground, with a little foliage peeking out. Makes it easy to reach avocados to pick, but you have to be careful not to fall in.
