Custard Apple (Annona squamosa)
Custard apple, also known as Sitaphal, Sugar Apple, or Sweetsop, is a delightful fruit-bearing tree from the Annonaceae family, botanically known as Annona squamosa. This semi-evergreen tree is perfect for home gardens, as it’s easy to maintain and thrives in dry climates with minimal water requirements. Its golden, medium to large-sized fruits are sweet and delicious, making them a popular choice for those who love exotic, tropical flavors.
While this variety yields slightly less compared to the Balanagar variety, it’s still a rewarding addition to any garden. Custard apple trees grow best in rich, well-drained soil and require full sun to semi-shade. They should be planted outdoors only in frost-free areas, as they are sensitive to cold winds and low temperatures.
This tree is perfect for planting in any corner of the garden, adding greenery while also offering a sweet harvest. For gardeners in warm climates looking for a low-maintenance, fruitful addition to their landscape, the custard apple tree is an excellent choice.
