Sugar-Apple? Bush shape is good for Sugar-Apples.Atemoya? Check into why the leaves are so small: Needs more fertilizer (Nitrogen and Zinc, especially), or needs insecticide to kill potato leaf-hoppers, if they are present.
Well... If you want a bush it looks fine, but if you want a tree you're gonna have to train it.I have an atemoya. soursop, 2 sugar apples and 2 custard apples, all wanted to grow like yours, but I want trees not bushes, so...Early on I trimmed off all of the low branches, tied it to a stake and as it grew I tied the new growth to the stake. Once it got to a height I wanted I cut the new top growth to force branching.
