Hey guys, I came across this blood-red Annona. Does anyone know what variety it is? I found it in southern Brazil.

Is probably is a reticulata, but i found no reticulata variety that has as red of a flesh.

Here is the skin, according to the seller. Kind of weird that the skin is not red.

100% reticulata. Looks like a superior type, too. Colour is incredible, I love the red/white blend. Hopefully it tastes as good as it looks.

Would be worth spreading seeds of that variety, just from having a look at it I know that it needs to be preserved.
Beautiful fruit, thanks for sharing the pics.

Not yet, this is the photo the seller sent. I have no doubt that this will be an incredible fruit once it matures, it is a 1 yo seedling

Sure hope so, I plan on selling seedlings once I get fruit. In the meantime i plan on grafting it to chirimoya rootstock while this one grows :D

What you have there is a nice looking reticulata. I recently grafted this one and it’s a seedling of San Pablo. San Pablo usually is not this blood red and also has more white in the center. I thought this fruit was fantastic btw even out did my Fernandez.

They look great, do they usually fruit in the same time range as chirimoya? 3 to 4 years from seed?
