GRAVIOLA / SOURSOP in the North East

[gazzasore]

Does anyone know if Soursop will grow in the North East

Chaiyaphum Area

I have bought some seeds But they have not sprouted yet

It says they take a month to sprout and that's about now

I emailed a Nursery down south that had small tree's forsale but never got a reply

Or does anyone know a nursery in the North East that sell the tree's

We might plant a few Rai if we can get then and they will grow

Cheers

About 20 kilos After Pak Chong, going towards Saraburi, on the #2 Highway is an area called Guang Dong, just before Muak Lek. Both sides of the road are large tree nurseries. Your best bet from where you are. or try the Unis or Royal Projects. There's a few around Korat.

Is soursop a seasonal fruit? (Durian plants only seem to be available at certain times of the year, etc)

Regards.

From what I have read they fruit all year around

I will try the Nurserys around Khon Kaen First

Thanks for your Reply

I use to have a soursop tree (AKA guanabana) outside of Chiang Mai up in the lower elevations of the hills. The tree was healthy and the taste of the fruit was sublime but it was nearly impossible to protect the fruit from ants and other insects.

That's good news

I was wondering if they would grow that far north

I grow one in BKK and at the moment it has some flowers. I hope they will get pollinated, i read the ants can do that so i put some sugar on the flowers and the ants are all over now.

In BKK they sell them on chatuchak
