After waiting for more than 2 years, finally I can eat a ripen sugar apple, from my own trees! Han been a week waiting for this one ripen, everyday I check it to make sure I'm not miss it. Because if already very soft, it is very easy to falling from the stem and you can't eat it anymore, it will be just a mess.
From 12 tiny baby fruits, only 7 survive, eeeerrr... well... not 7 but only 6 , because accidentally I knock of 1 of them while I'm moved the pots :(
I expected 1 of my trees will have a red-puple sugar apple ( Kampong Mauve), but non of them. Maybe even you start your seedling from red sugar apple, it's still can bee different from the mother plant due to cross pollination? maybe... not sure.... But I'm still happy without the red one, because they taste the same.
Sugar apple who's ripen at the tree, they look much better and also taste better. I never can't eat sugar apple from the store, for some reason , they taste awful and look ugly also.
My hubby never eat this one before, he like it the taste but hate the seeds :)
Here's the picture of a ripen from the tree sugar apple and what the inside look like.

The pulp very soft and sweet but be careful with their seed, lots of seeds. Will keep all the fresh seeds for a while, maybe someone at Gardenweb will want it..
So far my 2 Cherimoya seedling doing very good, 1 of them almost died because something eating almost all the leaves, so glad it's coming back. Cherimoya leaves much bigger than sugar apple.
