Annona Montana- Mountain Soursop
« on: June 23, 2025, 10:45:45 AM »
So I have been growing a seedling "soursop" that finally went into the ground about 1.5 yrs ago.

Got a fruit set a short while ago and what I thought (and was told) was guanabana is now confirmed a Mountain Soursop.

Pretty tree and very vigorous and disease resistant but I am pretty bummed about it because I never really wanted Montana and I feel like I wasted my time and effort on it.

I know that soursop (Muricata) will graft to it and some have reported Rolinia will as well.

Anything else that takes on Mountain soursop?

PS....I have another tree in the ground about the same size from the same nursery and I am guessing this one is Montana as well.

If anyone close to Homestead wants it let me know.....Otherwise I may feed it to my chipper.
