Atemoya trees produce one of the most delicious tropical fruits, combining the characteristics of sugar apple and cherimoya, the two species from which this fascinating hybrid originated. Their unusual, segmented fruit contains smooth, creamy flesh with a rich, custard-like texture and flavors often compared to vanilla, pineapple, and tropical fruit. Atemoyas are generally more adaptable to Florida's subtropical climate than cherimoyas, and different varieties offer interesting differences in sweetness, fruit size, seediness, and texture.
