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 wonder if La Verne would sell to you if you bought enough in bulk. They are nearby in Piru.

Cherimoya seeds are pretty simple to grow.  You can start them now and have some of the fast growers ready for grafting in April if you use a greenhouse.

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.

Cherimoya seedlings dont require anything special.  Just well drained soil and dont over water them.  They seem to thrive in neglect to be honest.
