Dream Atemoya Seedling
« on: September 06, 2020, 02:36:04 PM »
Hello everyone, I have attached three pictures of a seedling from a Dream Atemoya seed that I planted around February of this year. It's about three foot tall already and is really picking up the growth pace over the last 6 weeks. My question is if anyone can tell me based on the pics if you think this seedling has more cherimoya or more sugar apple traits? Based on my limited understanding the leaves look more Cherimoya like but I could be wrong. I've heard Cherimoya won't do well in Florida so I'm wondering if this seedling will struggle to produce fruit if it's genes are more from the Cherimoya side. Either way time will tell.

Leaf looks pretty oblong for a sugar apple. Below is a picture of a leaf on my dream. I
live in zone 9b and my dream has about 10 fruit for the 1st time this year.
