A rapid grower, soursop trees produce their first crop three to five years from seeding. Seeds stay viable for up to six months but better success is met by planting within 30 days of harvest and seeds will germinate within 15-30 days. Propagation is usually through seeds; however, fiberless varieties can be grafted.
If provided with proper care and a suitable planting site, soursop trees will reach a mature height of 15 to 20 feet in roughly six years and will bear fruit in three to five years, according to Purdue University College of Agriculture.
Soursop produces its first fruits within three to five years of planting.
Reaching about 8 metres (26 feet), the soursop tree has broad-ended oval evergreen leaves about 12 cm (5 inches) long. The aromatic fruits are oval, spiny, and green-skinned; they grow about 20 cm (8 inches) long and weigh up to 4.5 kg (10 pounds).. . . . .364011233466!]0000000000000009783314146397!]
