Custard Apple - Paxton Prolific (Grafted)

1010501's Edible Fruits
Update: 1695 days 8hrs

Comments: -

Plant arrived in in Feb 2020 in great condition with soil still damp. Will plant this into a pot after 1-2 weeks outside and provide updates.

May 2020 - slowly, but consistently, growing since potting. We will see how it copes with winter in Toowoomba - may have to bring it inside on cool nights.

Winter 2020: Brought inside every night.

Jan 2021: Has put on a lot of new growth, now in 45L planter bag. Flowered, but set no fruit.

September 2021: Looks worse for wear after staying outside in Toowoomba winter, but survived and putting on new growth.

Rollinia - Brazilian Custard Apple (Seedling) ^9/10

Bruada1's Edible Fruits
Update: 2300 days 22hrs

I purchased this Rollinia bout 4 years ago out at Holliways Beach Markets off a lad down from Juletten selling tropical fruit trees. It sat around in it's pot for a couple of years till I got round to planting it out. Decided to try to top it at about 1 meter and pull the branchers out and tying them down till they stayed there, as I heard they are shallow rooted and will blow over in a blow so by keeping it low hope to not loose it in a cyclone and also make it easy to pick fruit. Maby would have toped it at 1-1/2 to 2 meters if doing it again to allow more room to spread fertliser and mulch underneath as this seems to be working fine. This is the first time it has fruited.

Dwarf Custard Apple - Tropic Sun (Grafted) ^10/10

Malanda231's Edible Fruits
Update: 2644 days 22hrs

Comments: - Espaliered, looks awesome - took well to this and friends have commented. Love the fruit, not gritty/grainy like some other custard apples and small seeds too. No need to hand pollinate. Downside is that all of the fruit comes at once, quickly over a month from mid-feb to march in Brisbane. Must bag/net to protect from fruit fly - unripe fruit drops leading up to harvest as a natural thinning method so I bag by Feb and find fruit only start to get stung two weeks after the very first fruit drops. I harvest fruit to freeze the pulp to use later. Amazing with vanilla ice cream. I took a gamble with limited info online when I got this tree - it is a winner!!! I don't know why someone could not like the taste.

Rollinia - Brazilian Custard Apple ^7/10

LissyK1's Edible Fruits
Update: 3805 days 7hrs

Seems to be growing well so far. It has passed the brutal Mareeba sun test and didn't mind the transfer into the ground.

It is now struggling with the unrelenting heat. Not sure if it will survive. Probably needs the moistureof more tropical areas.

This plant ended up doing exceptionally well. It was flowering when I moved away, and was 5-6 foot tall and very healthy. So sad I missed out on seeing if it set fruit.
