A CHERIMOYA SUGAR APPLE HYBRID (Annona cherimola X A. squamosa). 
In an attempt to combine the good qualities of the Cherimoya and the Sugar Apple 
Mr. Edward Simmonds has succeeded in producing a hybrid between these two species. 
The tree shown in the illustration is one of these hybrids. It has already borne a number 
of fruits of most excellent quality and appearance. The fruit appears to be intermediate 
between the two species, and the tree shows an unusual vigor as is common in many 
hybrids. There are many species of Annona and this hybrid indicates the possibility 
of mingling them into superlative hybrid varieties. For this purpose a collection of 
Annona species has been assembled at the Miami Field Station. Photograph (P16155FS)
