Mountain Soursop

The Mountain Soursop tree (Annona montana) is a hardy tropical fruit tree known for its resilience and unique fruit with a tangy, pineapple-like flavour. Unlike common soursop, it is more cold-tolerant, making it a great option for subtropical areas in Australia. The tree has lush green foliage, grows quickly, and produces medium to large fruit with yellowish flesh. It thrives in warm, humid conditions and is easier to grow than standard soursop, with better resistance to pests and diseases. The leaves are often brewed into tea and valued for their traditional uses.
