Looking for a nursery that sells cherimoya's and ships plants.

Down here in FL none of the nurseries that I know of sellscherimoya's. They say they won't fruit down here, but I know of a few people with very productive trees. Right now I have a small Fino de jete and a bunch of seedlings that are doing great, but I would like to try to find a Honeyheart and either a White or a Pierce. I am open to any suggestions of other great types as well. These will all be container grown and in a greenhouse for the winter since I live just a bit north of where I think they could survive. We had a horrible winter this year and it hit 20 degrees on three different nights. This would wipe out all types of cherimoya right? Thanks for any help.

I have never tried them in Florida because I gad great difficulty obtaining them in Florida jsvand5. Usually what growers say may not be completely true. It may only be true in their experience!

Get the Cherimoyas and try them out!!! Good Growing!!!!!
