My Christmas Present- Sugar Apple (Man Cau)

This year I got a yummy Christmas present, home grown sugar apple. I planted this sugar apple from seed 2-3 years ago and this year it fruited for me. The fruit ripen on Christmas day. This is a Vietnam variety. I was surprised by the size of the fruit. It was 10.7 oz and very tasty. This is the chewy type...which I love most. Mom and dad got a piece of it and they were like wow. :))

you have such green thumbs. My tropical plants inside the sunroom don't do as good as yours do. No flowers, no fruits...some are even drying up fast, or attacked by pests...sigh!

Hi, what happen to your sugar apple tree? I wanted to plant it in container, and was excited to see your success, however I did not see your follow up posts after this one. Could you please give me an update on this if you don't mind?

Thanks,

Bao
