The custard apple (Annona squamosa) is a small, semi-deciduous tree or shrub that's native to the New World tropicsIt can grow to be 3–8 meters tall, with a thin, gray bark and a spherical or flattened crown. The tree has fragrant, pendulous flowers with six to eight fleshy, curved petals in two whorls, and many stamens and pistils. The leaves can be leathery or hairy, and are generally ovate with smooth margins

The custard apple's fruit is often scaly and succulent, and sometimes segmented. It's roundish in shape, with a knobby surface and an indent at the base that can be deep or shallow. When ripe, the skin is yellow to brown, and the fruit has many small, dark brown seeds embedded in the whiteish pulp, which is sweet-tasting. The fruit is popular in local markets and is typically eaten raw or added to smoothies and desserts

Custard apple trees are also known as sugar apple, sweetsop, buah nona, seri kaya, anona, nona, and bullock's heart. They are popular for home gardens because they require little maintenance and can fruit even when kept small. They are also drought tolerant and butterfly host plants.
