I was curious if these seeds would actually grow in my Florida backyard. To my delight, most sprouted and are now small but sturdy plants. I can�t wait for them to bear the sweet custard apples my grandmother used to love.
I added these custard apple trees alongside my mango and guava plants. They seem to be thriving in the same environment. It�s exciting to imagine harvesting a mix of tropical fruits in a few years.
I thought growing tropical fruit would be tough, but these seeds have done surprisingly well in pots. They just need warmth and regular watering. Looking forward to tasting the fruit when the time finally comes.
I�m not an expert gardener, but these seeds weren�t difficult to start. I followed basic instructions, and now I have several healthy seedlings. It�s satisfying to grow something so unusual in my small home garden.
I grew up eating custard apples overseas, and I wanted to bring that taste back home. The seeds sprouted well in pots, and I�ve moved a few into larger containers. It feels like I�ve got a little piece of the tropics in my backyard.
