Delicious treat to look forward to. My tree is also bearing. Here in Trinidad we call it Sugar Apple🌹

@koladrops , Thanks for stopping by. At my end we also call it SHAREEFA.

Custard apple (Shareefa) stages of flowering - Bud —> Female flower —> Male flower —> Fruit. I am seeing this all for the first time in one frame.

Thank you for appreciating, #angiie

Oh - My ignorance .. Thanks for pointing that out n being so nice at it @angiie! 👍

Our 4 year old #custardapple plant has not borne fruit for 2 seasons now. There is profuse flowering, but after blooming, they wither away. In the pic, you may note healthy buds in between and behind the withered flowers. The plant is in a 24"X24" planter, in #NewDelhi, #India. Please suggest an organic solution.

Hey everybody. Found the solution - Hand-pollination. Took 7-8 yrs ..
