Yea. Seems like all the good annona stuff is down in that area. Trying to find something local before that last option. Scion seems easier to get nowadays than rootstock. Lol

I don't know why but I can't seem too grow seeds or keep it alive once it sprouts. Wish I lived near you Brad, saw you had beautiful rootstocks for sale earlier this year.
