"It's sweet and
juicy!" exclaimed my wife Mary Ann.
She was referring to the guyabano fruit that I took from one of the
eight seedlings I planted 3 years ago.
Quickly, she delivered one bite size of the fruit flesh into my
mouth. After tasting the fruit, I
shouted joyfully "hooray, very
sweet and very juicy!".
One doesn't need to have
green thumbs in growing this sweet guyabano.
I'm a newbie in planting and propagation. Here's my tip: patience,
watering the seedling and care for its growth every other day is all you need
to have your own fruit bearing tree in the yard.
Guyabano or Soursop is a
favorite for its Vitamin C. It is used
for jelly, preserves and flavoring of beverages. The fruit is usually large (approximately
1-1/4 kilo a piece, dark green and have short fleshy spines). Nowadays, it's medicinal value to regulate
blood pressure attract producers to multiply their supply in the market.
Yummy! Interested? Don't hesitate to contact me, I still have
some seedlings available.
