Beautiful and healthy plant, interesting how early starts to flower. I sowed 5 seeds few days ago. As far as I know fruit is insipid, did you taste it?
Very cool Oscar, I've seen it offered on Jim's site, always looked interesting. Your tree is looking healthy for sure, hopefully you'll get some fruit in a few more years. Do the flowers remind you of other annonas?
Oscar, did you get fruits on them?
Hope it withstands the vog. A forum member who recently moved from Cairns to Perth had a maybe 8 ft tall tree he called Raimondia growing in dappled sunlight in his yard. I didn't take too much notice but it was covered in flowers and wouldn't set fruit.my recollection of it is different from the tree in the picture in this thread being smaller leafed, without shiny foliage and it had a typical Annona look and the flowers were like Rollinia. I cant check on it to see if my memory if failing as he shifted. Maybe he misidentified his plant but it did come from Jim West.I spread a few around about 3 years ago and have seeds recently received sprouting at my brother's place.

Hey Oscar, any fruit holding this year/did it bounce back from the sulfur dioxide?
