Summary[edit]

Description

Annona muricata Common Names: ?soursop?, ?prickly custard apple?. Portuguese (Brazil): graviola, Spanish: ?guan�bano?.

Origin: native to the lowlands of the Neotropic, probably to the Antilles or Mesoamerica, although it also grows spontaneously in South America. Its presence spreads along the Western Indies and from South Mexico to Peru and Brazil. This species is commonly introduced in the tropics and widely naturalized.

Fruits: are much appreciated in several Latin American countries, principally as fresh fruit, sweetened juice, and ice cream and in yogurt. In Brazil, this fruit?s juice is known as champola; in Puerto Rico, as carato. In fact, the whole plant is used by humans: leaves, fruits, seeds, bark, roots, and flowers.

Photographed in Brisbane suburban, Australia I've never ate it. Its relative "Custard apple" is more common in Australia.
