Wanted: Sugar Apple - Kampong Mauve in California?

(1/3) > >>

PltdWorld:
Is anyone growing this in SoCal?  Should it be grafted to cherimoya stock for best performance here?  Looking to purchase tree or scions.

Thanks in advance.

cuban007:
Some of the local nurseries such as Mimosa and Champa have some Kampong Mauve SA's from Pine Island. My suggestion to you is don't waste your time on that cultivar. The ones that I've had were small and seedy. Wait for Noel to make his SA seeds available.

PltdWorld:
Is it a red cultivar?  I would really like a red SA in my yard... headed to Rio very soon and hope to pick up plenty of seeds from various cultivars, but don't remember seeing any red in the markets/fruit stands there?

Cuban007 was referring to FGM's Big Red. :)

Doh  :P thanks for clarifying Thera!  I believe I have that grafted to the mother tree and hoping it takes... still need a couple more weeks to know for sure.  Between the kampong mauve and Big Red, the Big Red is the better cv then?
