Seed germination

Pour hot water over the seeds and then let them soak in the water for 12 hours. Then sow the seeds in damp seed compost or cactus soil. Alternatively, place the seeds between damp paper towels and put them in a sealed bag. Place in a warm, bright location.

Childcare

Annona conica must be planted in a pot, as it cannot tolerate frost. It can be kept outdoors in summer and indoors in winter. This is how we store our plants. In winter, it tends to shed its leaves, which then grow back when the light returns.

- Place in a bright spot, preferably with some sun
- Prefers shelter from the wind
