Haha, no worries... I have three growing in pots. one that I bought 2-3 years ago that I have trimmed into a 4' bush and two that I grew from seed that are about a year old. The one that I bought was maybe 2-3' when I got it and flowered back in Oct-Nov but the flower dropped off. It flowered again before our last temperature dip and there's one flower holding on, but there isn't a single leaf on the tree so I'm waiting for it to drop off at any time. From my experience with annonas (sugar apple and cherimoya) they typically fruit within 3-4 years from seed in zone 9b so hopefully I get something this year.
here's when I got it:

now that i look at it i think it's a cuban tree frog. there used to be a green one, but maybe it got eaten.
