Any updates on how these beauties are doing? Is anyone besides Wayne selling these? I tried emailing him at the email on the first page but it got bounced back.

My Dream atemoya seems to not be showing much vigor. Do you suppose it doesn't like being this far south?
How long has it been planted? What is your soil like? What fertilizers have you used?

(In my neighborhood there are several slash pines with huge trunks, remnants of the original tree cover.) I use composted manure (from Home Depot) to enrich the soil for this tree. I fertilize with regular fruit tree formula, such as what Excalibur sells. The tree has been in the ground almost 2 years. Do you any suggestions, Har?

After finishing other details of planting, adding an inch-deep (or less) layer of compost over the native sand, to privide an instant topsoil, is fine; however, if compost is put into the planting hole, it can interfere with drainage, and increase chance of root-rot.
