I thought I lost mine the first year because we had a slight frost the winter b-4, I was about to dig it out when I noticed 1 little bit of green, it turns out that if you can get it through the first winter;then it becomes strong enough to take our mild Florida frosts. I have a black sapote that has it's first fruit buds on it now;can hardly wait to taste them. From what I read I don't think the fruit will mature till January. I gotta wonder if the fruit itself will make it through the winter. Oh, and I found a way to eat the Cherimoya without all the seeds. I found some thing called a fruit press and just put all the pulp in it and press, I get lots of great pulp without the seeds;I think a kid would have fun sucking on the seeds and cleaning them off and spitting them out, just glad I no longer have to do that.
