Annona muricata

Heart shaped flower pods. Supposed to be self-fertile but I keep missing my window for helping out with some mechanical intervention #autumnblooms

@KathyB I’ve never heard of this before. Is it hardy for the uk?

@pixierose they are native to tropical South America so can only just make it through my warm-temperate/maybe sub-tropical (depending on the map) winters.

@KathyB Thank you 🙏🏼 for your information and reply. 👍🏼😊

How is it looking now?

I'll check tomoz @brightcolours. There were cases on the grass but I didn't check the tree. Derrrr me!

New shoots after Winter. My mum was in Queensland this week and a nursery there told her you could NEVER grow this in Newcastle. Well I say 😝 to that! 😉

Has it ever fruited?

@brightcolours it's not old enough yet. I gre it from seed and takes about 10 years

Amazing!!!! Very well doneto you! Absolutely amazing breaking the barriers really cool & you say from seed? Wow!

This is one of my most tropical trees. Doing well for winter! (living next to the hot water heater helps!)
