Produces Tons Of Delicious, Sweet And Creamy Fruit
The Sugar Apple tree, also known as the 'annona squamosal', is a unique tropical tree that's the clear winner amongst its competition because it produces a distinctive fruit with an individual look and tropical flavor that blows people away.
Other common names for the Sugar Apple Tree include Sweetsop Tree, Custard Apple Tree, Bullock's Heart, and Annona Tree.
Sugar apples taste like a sweet vanilla custard with a hint of pineapple. Its smooth and slightly grainy texture makes this fruit a delight to snack on. While most Sugar Apples are eaten fresh, they can also be used in desserts and for making juices.
Sugar Apples, often referred to as 'sweetsops', have a unique shape, similar to a heart and light green skin that's divided up into sections. Its conical nature causes the fruit to look like a green pinecone at first, but since the fruit is split among different sections it's very easy to split apart and eat fresh, right off the tree.
Once you pull your Sugar Apple apart you'll find soft and creamy flesh on the inside that's divided into sections. Simply pick out the white flesh sections one by one and eat them for a rush of rich tropical flavors.
You don't have to live without Sugar Apple trees, because they will grow anywhere. They'll give your landscape a lush tropical feel if planted in the ground, and they also thrive in containers. They can be placed around porches, patios, and inside any room to liven it up with their long and slender exotic leaves.
Sugar Apple Trees produce an irresistible fruit that people can't wait to try. They're selling out fast, so we recommend ordering yours today before they are all gone.

Sugar Apple
I have bought 2 sugar apples trees….living in CT they will be patio trees that we will bring in during cold weather. First tree I purchased did arrive with black spots that I attributed to stress from shipping but it was spreading so I knew it was a pest of some sort. I tried neem oil and it stopped the spread but direct sun burned some of the leaves. I didnt contact FGT because I was determined to baby my tree. In the winter flowers started to show but did not give us fruit. I did some research and sugar apple is not self pollinating ( like what the FGT website says). It is somewhat complicated but definitely doable. The fruit is worth it to go the extra mile. There is an article on it from a Florida college I believe. Second tree is healthy but a little slower to grow leaves. It is my favorite fruit honestly so I am invested in any waiting and hand pollinating! The flowers are green and I included a photo
Sugar apple
Has anyone's tree grow a fruit yet? My trees are in their 2nd year and they don't look like they will have a fruit anytime soon
Worth buying!!!
Very happy with the plants I received. Very healthy looking. Although I ordered two fruit bearing tree. One is this Sugar Apple and one is blood orange. However , only Sugar Apple received. But, the rest will be arriving tomorrow. I highly recommend this FGT. They did well on taking care of the plants, shipping and what not. Expensive but worth it.
