Annona Montana
We are excited to have acquired and sprouted Annona Montana. This variety comes from a trusted grower in Argentina where locals call it Guanabana do Tupi. It is a sweet strain selcted for flavor and resilence, This variety, also known as “Fruta grande da beira dos rios,” boasts a flavor that surpasses even the most renowned soursop types. Its indigenous name translates to “large riverside fruit” or “large fruit with watery pulp,” hinting at the juicy, luscious experience that awaits. Unlike the typical soursop (Annona muricata), this variety is more cold hardy, making it a viable option for growers in marginal climates. It is more akin to the cold tolerance of sugar apple and will not lose its leaves at forty like your typical soursop.
For the first time ever, the Guanabana do Tupi is now available in New Orleans and presents incredible possibilities for adaptability unique offspring. Whether you’re seeking something extraordinary for your orchard or a resilient, exotic fruit that can thrive in the Gulf South, this variety is an excellent choice.
Endemic to parts of Bahia, Brazil, and distinguished as a unique species by botanists like Martius, the Guanabana do Tupi originates from the Amazon rainforest. It thrives along riverbanks and in secondary forests across Brazil, Central America, Cuba, Guatemala, Suriname, Venezuela, Ecuador, and southern Peru. It flourishes in a wide range of conditions, from flooded to dry environments, and at elevations ranging from sea level up to 1,800 meters. With large, triangular, thick flowers that bloom opposite the leaves or in clusters of three to five along the stem, and leathery oblong leaves that form a dense, deep green canopy, the tree is a stunning presence in any landscape.
The real treasure, however, lies in its fruit: a pulp so aromatic, thick, and sweet that it outshines even the finest soursops. Perfect for fresh eating, blending into smoothies, or incorporating into desserts like ice creams, puddings, cookies, and cakes, this fruit delivers an unforgettable taste experience. Don’t miss your chance to grow this exceptional, cold-hardy variety with legendary Amazonian roots and the resilience to thrive in new environments.
