Appreciate your response elouicious! It occured to me that some one was offering pond apple fruits on TFF after this ad was posted. Although it’s been 3 months since they were last offered, I’ll get in touch with orkine just to make sure...Thanks again!

I still have some of Orkine seeds if he doesn't have anymore available.  We planted a bunch and they are just now coming up and I was soaking the rest to get ready to plant out but if you want some let me know.   How many were you wanting?

How many seeds can you afford to offer?!?😁

I want to try grafting a few ilama, rollinia, and other annonas onto pond apple rootstocks as they are said to be more tolerant of wet, mucky soil than other annonas. My annonas  do well, but then when the weather gets warm and muggy, some of them can start losing leaves and perish. I attribute to root rot, as some of the roots were discolored and felt spongy...Thanks for the offer StelaG!

We have around 50 seeds remaining if I remember correctly.  We are growing them for the same purpose, to use as rootstock for other annonas.  Where are you located?
