Pineapple Anonna setting fruit . . . .
« on: April 19, 2021, 03:36:28 AM »
Got this thing from TT in Nov.'20.  It was in a 1 gal. pot.  In early March it got moved up into a 3 gal. pot and was shortly put out into more sunlight.

Now after about six weeks in the larger pot I discovered that it has set half a dozen fruits which are already the size of a marble.  The 'tree' is closing on three feet tall.  Had no idea that these could be so precocious.

Hopefully it will hold some of the fruit and I'll get to try them.  Of course they may be unsatisfactory as others on here have warned that this may just be a yellow-fleshed A. glabra and not especially tasty, but we shall see.

I also have an A. montana which is still in a one gal. pot, also from TT.  Guess it may also benefit from being moved up into a three gal., but will it fruit?  If a move into a larger pot encourages it to do so will let you know.

Cheers!
