thank you. Custard apple is on the short list of what I am considering putting in my yard. this answered most of my questions, and the rest will be answered in a few weeks when I see a local expert on tropicals.
We have here on island Saipan near Guam. Thks for sharing. We called it anona. Different your right fuit cuardard apple. Love to eat. Like it very very sweet.
I am from India-kerala. Kerala is a good land and good climate for this tree. I have 8 tree of this fruit. Always this tree giving large quantity fruits. Really very tasty fruit....
Nice to come across so much information on the custard apple! I have three in my yard about 6ft to 15ft tall,the smaller ones grown from seeds,and a cherimoya grown from seeds. I have a Vietnamese neighbor that has sweet sop and sour soup trees.i must show him this video. These fruit trees bear delicious fruit,and you wouldn't believe how expensive thay are in stores!
Очень познавательное видео. Спасибо за труд. Дед описывает сожержательно, свои ощущеня вкуса, детально дает представление. - тоже молодец дед. 🇷🇺 успехов в садоводстве
We have this in Puerto Rico, where it is known as _corazón_ ("heart") or _fruta corazon_ ("heartfruit"). I never knew that some in some places it is known as "bull's heart."
Thank you for making this video, just starting my subtropical food forest. Sadly, I can not get on top of the Papaya fruit fly, as they are getting the fruit too young.
hello, i love all the information you guys give us for free oh yeah. i do have a question for custard apples, when do custard apples start to flower and when do they stop flowering? when is best to fertilize them and trim them ?
Manual pollination helps get more, bigger, and better shaped fruit. Some varieties may need manual pollination more than others, but we do not manually pollinate our trees here at the farm.
This is a great video. Thanks for sharing. I have 2 trees here in Orlando, FL. For the past 3 years, they flowered with no fruits. I tried hand pollination last year to no avail. I’m very desperate to see fruits on those trees this year. I have a friend who lives about 20 minutes away from me. She brought 3 fruits for me this morning from her tree. She doesn’t do hand pollination. Does anyone know what I need to do at this point? Please help. Thanks in advance. 😭😭😭
I am in pt st Lucie and I have the same problem. My tree been flowing for 3yrs now and no fruit. I tried hand pollination and still no fruit. Did you finally get fruit if so what did you do?
@@lurlinestewart7755 Nothing yet. Late last December, I discovered a small fruit on a branch. But the recent cold weather burned it. I’m waiting to see what happened this year. I give up 😀😀😀. Good luck
@@lurlinestewart7755 I would say, be patient a bit more. I was almost giving up on my tree but the year I was about to cut it, it suddenly came up with over 15 fruits at a go and I thanked God that I did not cut it.
Thanks for the interesting and pleasantly watchable video. It resonates with us in India and with me:- 1. Indeed, as helpfully pointed out in the video, here in India 'custard apple' stands for what the video shows as the sugar apple. 2. Although officially said to have been introduced to India (my country) by the Portuguese colonials a few hundred years ago, the anona fruits have been depicted in far older sculptures, from ancient times. I had searched online and found a scholarly article discussing this. 3. In my facebook post (if interested it may be searched for with 'custard apple' and my name) I've included a picture of a Buddhist sculpture from Sanchi, India, dated 35 BC which shows sugar apples (I shall follow the nomenclature of your video). 4. Three anona species are named to this day after one of the most popular Hindu deities, Lord Rama/Ram, his wife Sita, and his brother Lakshman/Laxman. The custard apple, yes as you said here in India it's called bullock's heart in English, is Ramphal in Hindi (one of the languages believed to have descended from the ancient Sanskrit) meaning Ramfruit. The sugar apple is Sitaphal. The soursop is named Lakshmanphal, after the brother of Lord Rama. 5. The sugar apple or sitaphal is far more popular across India at least in the cities; in fact until two decades or so ago it was the only anona I had ever seen. Although nowhere near a favourite I like it well enough in its way. The bullock's heart I tried eagerly a few years ago as a novelty but somehow didn't like it much. I've had it just a few times but haven't developed a liking for it. It has more flavours than the familiar sugar apple and is more tart: not that I dislike tart or fragrant complex flavoured fruits as such. Oh well. Incidentally even here in Goa where it grows the custard apple isn't that commonly available and is expensive. 6. Lakshmanphal or the soursop is a rare fruit but it does grow in Goa, India's smallest state, where I am now. A few years ago a cousin read of the reported benefits of the decoction of soursop leaves in treating or alleviating cancer when her father had lung cancer so I found some leaves and sent them to her in Mumbai. At least twice I sent a parcel of the leaves. Of course her father was getting all the conventional medical treatment in that big city, but she, and I think the doctors as well, thought there would be no harm having this herbal substance too. Regretfully, the patient passed away. His disease had advanced and he was of quite senior age. Well, thanks again. I look forward to watching more videos of this channel to which I've subscribed, starting with those already uploaded. Good wishes. 💐
Now I'm upset. I went to Sprouts and found one for 5.99/pound. It was so expensive but I've had them before and remembered how yummy they can be. I've never had a bad one before. So, I bought one. I got it home, waited for it to ripen and shared it with my 4 year old. Mine was gritty and tasted almost fermented. It was firm when I purchased it. I checked it every day. I kept it on the counter in a well ventilated area (in a strainer.) Today, it turned soft, the core came out easily. It had a mango/pineapple smell to it. The fruit came apart more like Jack fruit. I live in Southern AZ. I wonder if I could grow them here.
You should be able to do that. One note of caution- annonas tend to lose most to all of their leaves in the winter. We did a video on Sugar Apples and Cold weather a while back: ruclips.net/video/WkeWuHpX4do/видео.html
@@TrulyTropical Thanks I watched that video and was very happy ! Now how can I get my custard apple tree to grow fast till next winter ? any fertilizer better than the other ?
Hello. I live in south FL and think that I have one of these trees in my yard. The fruits hanging on them are purple though. How do I know if this is custard apple or if they're ready?
The larvae go after the seeds. Some fruit have lots of damage, but often (at least for us) just one or two borers develop in the fruit and exit before the fruit ripen. Most of our Custard Apples this year didn't have any seed borers.
Cherimoya and paw paw are out of the running because they don''t grow here. Soursop is good. I like rollinia a lot, but... for me... the flavor and texture of custard apple wins.
I've only eaten cherimoya once and that was years ago, but I remember it being very good. Sugar apple is sweet, but has a lot of seeds. Sour sop is sweet and sour and makes a very good ice cream. Texture is cotton like. Custard apple can vary dramatically in quality. The bad ones are horrible and the good ones are like raspberry yogurt and as she said dense and filling. Rollina are big and scary looking. Good ones taste like lemon pie. The downside to rollinia is that it turns to slime rather quickly (aka snot apple), and since it's a large fruit, many times a good portion is thrown out before it can be eaten.
I have seen a video EARTH s FLOW in which they have shown a very red colored custard apple a.reticulata. what's that variety, where it's available.can u give some clarification.
The two most red fleshed custard apples we've seen are San Pablo and Fernandez. I would guess the one you are describing is Fernandez. They are both available at various nurseries here in South Florida you can order both online from our friends at Lara farms: larafarmsmiami.com/products/custard-apple-1-gallon
Mmm they look and sound like they are delicious, I can't wait to try one someday.
The best video on Custard apple i've watched
uau, I love annona

In North India it is called "Sita phal" . Also it is said that lord Ram and goddess Sita ate this fruit in the time of exile .
I wish we had this more in northern america
Very nice video. Thanks.
My favorite fruit ever 🥰
Very kind of you to share very helpful. Thank you kind lady
In Guerrero México it grows in the wild along with sugar apples.
Excellent presentation.

好吃，😃😃😃😃😃😄💯
do you sell seeds?
I would love to taste
when do you discuss the flavour?
Do you sell the seeds?
I'm living in Jamaica now and we have a few custard apple trees around. I'm trying to see how it works out as a wine
As an update the custard apple makes an incredible wine
Send some trees to south africa
At around 2.52 you can see the squirrel that probably taste tested the fruit at the bottom right of the screen.
Thank you for a great video, please make a video of cherimoya and atemoya also if possible. Wish I could get the trees in my country
We are trying to do videos on the fruits that we grow. Atemoya is one that we have, but cherimoya doesn't grow in Florida
Do you spray an I n secticide or fungicide o. The fruit
No we don't.
Do you sell seeds from the Cachiman? Can't find them anywhere 🙏

Also add fish and organic fertilizers
Let's give that a try
Amazing info, thank you for sharing,
Thanks for watching!
I want to try this fruit again please 🙏 let’s get this
This is "Ram Phal" in India. I have this tree
S u r right
i never tried this one yet
They are alot different to the custard apples we have in Australia
May I ask what is the variety you have shown us today
This is a nice-quality seedling Custard Apple
Annona Reticulata
How is this different from the annona cherimoya?

Я всегда говорю: народными средствами можно лечиться-вылечиться маловероятно. По этому главное вовремя обратится к врачу
Custard apple is also delicious with sweetened condensed milk.
Sounds yummy!
Can we graft sugar apple over custard or vice versa. Since it belong to a common family?
Ok thank you
I have two @ home 🤗🤗🤗

I have a 2ft sugar apple tree . In N CA can I leave it outside and bring it indoors for the winter ? we have a 40's and a few 37-39 degree nights
You should be able to do that. One note of caution- annonas tend to lose most to all of their leaves in the winter.
We did a video on Sugar Apples and Cold weather a while back: ruclips.net/video/WkeWuHpX4do/видео.html
@@TrulyTropical Thanks
I watched that video and was very happy !
Now how can I get my custard apple tree to grow fast till next winter ? any fertilizer better than the other ?
Most of this fruit grows in Iplantion of Samoa they call Nonu Salasapa and others ITS sweets and good for Health in life throughout in life's time.
Do these need to be hand pollinated like the cherimoya?
Not in this area
Do you sell them and can you eat the peel?
We do sell them at our front gate here in Delray Beach Florida. I do not eat the skin.
Hi, Do you hand pollinate the flowers?
We do not.
I'd seen one of this custard apple tree somewhere here in my place - I will ask the owner for the seed to grow my own 🤔 🌱
Do you know where San Pablo custard apple can be purchased?
We will try to check around for a source

Not to be a Debby Downer, but doesn't the annona seed borer lay its larvae in the fruit?
The larvae go after the seeds. Some fruit have lots of damage, but often (at least for us) just one or two borers develop in the fruit and exit before the fruit ripen. Most of our Custard Apples this year didn't have any seed borers.

Hello, I have some plant , but them are ping skin, is green variety ?
custard apple comes in different colors
En Mexico se conoce como ANONA es cremosa y deliciosa!!!
They are the best, Custard apple, sweet sapp and sour sapp.
Maybe grown in a greenhouse would work in cooler climes. Like an orangery.
What are the genetic resources of custard apple??
and just wrapping the fruit with a TNT bag I do it right here.
I live in Brazil
Good idea! Thanks for watching the video and commenting.
In India it is called sitafal
In our place it is called as blathikka..
Frozen Custard also known as ice cream is ubiquitous in some countries

Use wire mesh and make a ball-like shape to cover the fruit on the tree itself. That will protect them from the animals.
