Hi Micah!

For the plants with Cerrado origins (A.cornifolia, A.sp.rollinia, A.sp.squamosa) as well as for those with African origins like A.stenophylla or the one close to Paraguay (A.nutans), you should bear in mind what I found in Wikipedia, that I agree with:

"The Cerrado's climate is typical of the rather moister savanna regions of the world, with a semi-humid tropical climate. The Cerrado is limited to two dominant seasons throughout the year, wet and dry. Annual temperatures for the Cerrado average between 22 and 27 °C and average precipitation between 800–2000 mm for over 90% of the area.[5] This ecoregion has a very strong dry season during the southern winter (approx. April– September)"

So, my suggestion is: put these plants in full sun, and at least for 6 months, if the plants are planted in the ground, I would water much less than the rest of the plants you have, profiting from your dry season. So, be careful to not rot the roots with too much water when the plants are static! Especially for A.stenophylla which has at the base a tuberous root which cumulate water for the dry season every year!
By the way, if A.stenophylla start drying in the aereal part at the end of season, don't be afraid!!! It's normal, every year do like this, and restart growing from the tuber the following season, usually with new flowers!!

The rest of the plants, things are much easier, since A.bahiensis, A.parviflora, A.neolaurifolia and A.ubatubensis are much flexible. It worth to mention that I found in my bonsai collection that A.bahiensis and A.neolaurifolia are much more cold resistant but my advice is: do not rely too much on that, since I also found they react muuuuuch better if they are exposed to half shade/sun during the hot season days and protected by the cold wind during the night also in cold season. You recognize that immediately when they are in the flowering dress: they feel stonger if they were protected!

Another interesting tip is the manure: for all Cerrado type, they like organic manure, but do NOT exaggerate with it! The Cerrado ground like the African savannah are very poor soil!!! Too much manure can burn the roots easily. Do it carefully only few days before the seasonal new growths.
For the other annonaceae, they can tolerate much more flexibility in term of quantity and percentage of components, but do not exceed to acid PH.

Last but not least: be careful about the wind: these annonaceae are quite resistant, but I recognized that they prefer protected places from the cold winds. I mean, they don't like still places without wind, but not too windy! This is because still humidity can lead to mold in the leaves and that's really not good! If you have a place in the third line of the beachfront that's could be the best.

Ok, that's enough for the moment, for any other question you may have, just ask!

Aloha brethren,
In the nursery should they be in full sun or partial?
As far as watering goes? Is it ok to water every day like our other plants? Or should I set aside an annona cerrado zone that gets less watering?  They look like they are quite hardy.
You get royal carpet treatment when you visit Hawaii from me.
Mahalo!

Thank you so much Sune,

I have in pipeline many ultra-rare annonaceae for conosseurs for sale for the next year. I will give priority to all friends who were so enthusiastic like you.

Hope you will keep safe and fruitful your Annonas for the next years, and they will reward you!!!

For any cultivation tip you may need just ask!

All the best,

Giampaolo

This weekend I received the last annona plants from this season - and the first in my annona adventure that will, hopefully, last many years to come. The plants look healthy and were packed well. There was no damage from their journey from Italy to Denmark. Overall, very satisfied and excited by this chance to getting started in the Annonaceae sphere. Thank you Giampaolo, I will look forward to seeing what jewels you have in stock next year  !

Hola Raul,

by the way, did you have the chance to find Annona globiflora seeds somewhere?!!!! is endemic to Mexico!

All the best,

Giampaolo

Thanks Joao!!

All the best,

Giampaolo

Hi I resent a PM to you... did you get it?

thanks,

Giampaolo

I am sorry - but I haven't got any PM yet. I am still interested in annonaceae - hope some still left 
Brd Sune

Many thanks Tong,

the box size was only to preserve the leaves and health of the plants: I had bad experiences in the past recieving damaged plants because shipped with too small boxes. Fortunately, the box weight didn't affect the shipping price, while on the other hand the extra plants I put in it did, and I had to pay by my side the difference. Anyway, I was truly happy to deliver to you these treasures!!! They are in good hands now again.

Take care of them, will be great!

Giampaolo

i got the plant already. all the seedlings are in very good condition.
only one thing problem, you used too big box for sending the plant to oversea. the box was very big cause a lot of shipping fee and catched the custom eye.
 my plant got confiscated but i went to negotiate and pay extra money. finally i got them back with me.
but i love your plant

Dear friends,

the last year, where all have been sold out in just one week, I promised to all people interested to sell the next surplus of my collection here. This thread is just to advance the plants I'm going to sell starting from the fourth week of August, it's a sort of pre-sale where you can book the plants.

50% of the value must be paid in advance by paypal. The rest once I prepare the boxes to be sent.
The postal cost as well as packaging and paypal fees will be agreed later before preparing the boxes depending on the destination country.

Here it is the list, in the next days will follow the photos of each plant:



In case you are interested, PM to me in advance.


All the best,

Giampaolo

Hi Joe, sorry if I've checked only now your post, I was very busy in the last weeks.
Regarding to coriacea seeds I had the same surprise, that's why today I forwarded your questions to my friend in Brasil.

I expect his feedback asap, and I 'l be back to you as well.

Thanks,

Giampaolo

I have good news and bad news about these seeds. The good news is my ordered arrived quickly, the seeds were in good shape and some germinated quickly. The bad news... well, I'll get to that in a moment.

Annona coriacea:


Annona crassiflora:


Duguetia lanceolata:


I grew each of the three species in three separate tubs. The Duguetia and Crassiflora seeds have not yet germinated, but the tub of Coriacea seeds came up very quickly. As the seedlings grew I was surprised to see two very different looking plants in that tub. I asked some friends who have grown Annona coriacea before, and they said neither one of these look like Coriacea. Perhaps they are Annona squamosa, Annona montana, or some other common Annonas.

I don't think Giampaolo is dishonest, but his friend in Brazil is either a scammer or just very sloppy.

Cristiano, puoi provare, ma salvo tu abbia una serra, ad Ancona non c'è umidità e temperatura per molte specie di pouteria.

in bocca al lupo!

Giampaolo

Dada, I found out: it Naucleopsis glabra. So it's not an annonacea.
