Description
The tree is similar to Annona muricata, but has a more spreading crown and glossy leaves. It is slightly hardier and bears fruit throughout the year.[9] It tolerates brief temperature drops down to 24 °F (−4 °C) when full grown.[10] Its pollen is shed as permanent tetrads.[11] The fruits are nearly round, with dark green skin covered with many short fleshy spines, and are about 15 centimetres (5.9 in) long. Yellow, fibrous pulp – which is aromatic – is sour and bitter, containing many light-brown, plump seeds.[9] There is history of its use as a traditional medicine.[9]

- Caribbean: West Indies
- Central America: Costa Rica, Panama
- South America: Bolivia, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, Venezuela, Brazil[2][12]
