Soursop (Guanabana) Care & Information

Soursop Tree: Tropical Flavor Meets Lush Beauty

Bring the tropics to your backyard with the Soursop Tree, a stunning tropical fruit tree that doesn’t just look good—it’s a producer of juicy, aromatic fruit prized for its unique, tangy-sweet flavor. Known for its glossy, dark green leaves and exotic fruit, the soursop tree is as much a conversation piece as it is a provider of delicious treats.

Why You’ll Love It:

  • Flavorful Fruit: Soursop’s creamy, fibrous fruit combines flavors of mango, pineapple and banana. Think of it as nature’s tropical sorbet!
  • Exotic Interest: Prickly-looking fruit and bright yellow flowers create showy appeal in your garden. 
  • Lush Foliage: Its vibrant leaves provide a unique display, making it as beautiful as it is productive.

Growing Tips:

Soursop loves warm, sunny spots—think tropical vacation vibes. It thrives in USDA Zones 10-11, but don’t worry if you live in a cooler climate; just pot it up and move it indoors during colder months. Keep the soil well-draining and slightly acidic for the happiest, healthiest tree.

Whether you're craving fresh tropical fruit or just want a show-stopping plant in your collection, the Soursop Tree delivers. Add it to your garden and enjoy the best of both worlds: beauty and bounty!
