About My Edible Backyard

I gain great satisfaction in producing beautiful fresh food for the table, which is organically grown, and has incurred zero food miles.

Cherimoya - White (Grafted) ^10/10

Comments: -

This fruit formed in autumn this year. I purchased the plant 2 years ago. Last winter, the pot was kept in a glasshouse, but this year it has been outside in a sheltered location. We have had about 20 mild frosts. The fruit has hung on over winter, and I am hoping it will ripen once the weather warms up. This is the first tropival fruit that I have produced in Melbourne.

Planted: 2008

Height 1.5 metres

Growing: In a Pot

Qty: 1

First Fruited: 18 Months from Purchase in Pot

Sun/Shade: Medium Sun

Water Given in: Spring

Pollination: No

When I Fertilise: Never

Pest Control:

None

Question:

Can I keep it in a large container?
