Someone in the Midwest is growing sugar Apples???
Wow...my Uncle Donnie sixth generation Conch (from Key West, FL) always used to say..."Boy the best piece of fruit you ever gonna eat is a Sugar Apple". I have always thought they were awesome, everyone has their own taste preferences.
I will concede it is definitely more challenging to get a Cheriimoya to fruit out of the Tropics.
In any case PM your address and if you are interested I will send you some seeds (late summer early fall).
You can probably obtain Cherimoya seeds from one of the South Florida Fruit Clubs.

Maybe you can coax one of the CA members to obtain some seeds from the orchard;-)
