Rollinia cross pollination
« on: January 07, 2016, 04:47:02 PM »
Hey does anyone know if rollinias can possibly cross pollinate with aytemoya or sugar Apple, would I plant the away from each other to prevent cross pollination?

Yes, I have to hand pollinate rollinia to get fruit set. The same basic Annona hand pollination principles apply to rollinia.  The optimal time of day is around 6:30 PM for me.
