✏️ New variety of Sapodilla? Thai Brownie!

• 🍪 Back in 2005, TopTropicals crew traveled to Thailand and discovered very interesting variety of Sapodilla at the fruit market (first pic). No one could tell us the name of this variety so we named it Brownie. We brought the seeds with us...
• 🍪 Seven years later, we've had fruiting trees from those seeds! The fruit was even more elongated that the parent.
• 🍪 The trees we have right now for sale are the second generation, seedlings from that original Thai Brownie. Try these for your fruit forest!
• 🍪 The elongated fruit is small, 3-4"long, smooth pulp is very sweet.

What is this spiny Hedgehog fruit and how does it taste?

👀 This is one of the coolest looking tropical fruit!

Annona montana - Mountain Soursop or Hedgehog Annona. It is also called Wild Custard Apple, Guanabana de Monte, or Wild Soursop.

• 📍 This fruit is prized for its deliciously sweet and tangy fruit, reminiscent of a blend between pineapple and strawberry. It tastes similar to regular Soursop (or Guanabana), with slightly milder flavor. The pulp is highly scented.
• 📍 The fruit, up to a pound, has the most unusual looks! Just look at these curious Hedgehog spines!
• 📍 The tree is medium sized, with beautiful, large, leathery dark green leaves that emit a strong aroma when crushed.
• 📍 Mountain Soursop is much more cold hardy than the Soursop, established trees can take some frost, down to 24F when full grown.
• 📍 Trees produce within just 2-3 years from seed, like many Annonas, and can happily grow and produce in a large container.

👨�‍👧 We guarantee that everyone who sees this fruit in your garden will ask for seeds even before they taste the fruit! And you will have lots of seeds to share because Mountain Soursop is very reliable producer with many seeds in each fruit.
