My top picks of the ones I grow are;

Honey Jar -My favorite
GA 866
Redlands 4
Sugar Cane

Others..not as good but may fruit at different times....
Li
Winter Delight
Sherwood
Tigers Tooth

If you like sweet you may want to consider Honey Jar. It is sweet and is juicier than others I grow.
Only negatives to Honey Jar is the fruit size and perhaps the thorns. They are relatively small.

Thank you both!

I found the male scion.

I have read that the female trees hold fruit only after a few years. I was being impatient and wanted a male to pollinate while the female tree matured.

nana7b,
Wow, your seedlings are impressive. How many
seeds did you start with...when did they germinate?
I was going to buy more seeds...but the price is now
$24 for 8 seeds...not including shipping.

I started with 6 seeds and was lucky to get these to sprout. Had only one come up on Richards seeds.
Overall success rate with SA for me has been on the low side. It appears everyone has the same issue.

I think these were started in early October, so they are about 5 months from seed. Germination took about 3-4 weeks.
I had to help a couple with the seed capsule.( to remove it)

Thank you!

Let me know if you have male Che scion. (Approximately 1/8 - 1/4 inch caliper)

I can trade female Che scions and also some Fig cuttings, or pay.

I have several fig varieties and Che mulberry cuttings if you are interested in trading.

Please PM.

 That looks like a 7 gallon Kampong Mauve ? Is that correct ? I have a kampong mauve in a 7 gallon squat that gave me 1 fruit during thanksgiving weekend. It set probably half a dozen fruit but over time all but 1 fell off, I'm guessing because the tree is young. I have since assembled a few greenhouses to provide a more humid environment for my annoas. That was my first time trying a sugar apple .  It was good but I think cherimoya beats it hands down. Still waiting to try ilamas and reticulata.

William, this is a Red Sugar Apple. Its 2 yrs old and I believe it is in a 5gal. It made multiple fruits as well and all  turned black and fell off except for one. Unfortunately I was out of town when it ripened. Gave it to my BIL who said it was excellent. Yes, Cherimoya I would say is better, but SA is very good as well and easier to grow in containers.

Been trying to find the following topic and finally found it. In the middle of the page there is info on rooting with vermiculite.

Also came across the following link regarding high success rate with vermiculite;
