Jumbo Sugar apple cultivar
« on: February 25, 2024, 11:01:47 PM »
Hello,
I am looking for a jumbo sugar apple cultivar. I live in Palm coast FL. When in season, the only available sugar apple are small ones. I am aware of larger/jumbo size but not sure what variety is it. Thanks.

Call Fruitscapes over on Pine Island. They had one called "M1" or "M-One" that was part of the annona breeding project they have been working on. Its supposed to be quite large.

Thought that I would like to try this big fruited cultivar but also heard that this variety
was a shy fruiter.  Any other word on that?  Maybe some folks have gotten it to make
decent crops fo fruit somehow which still could make it a worthwhile tree to grow.

Comments?  Suggestions?

TIA
