I never knew that this day would come so soon. Less than a year after buying and planting this tree, it has grown more than double in size and today I noticed it's put out its first flower.
If you don't know about Soursop, you should definitely read about it. It has great healing properties such as being high in antioxidants, it also has high vitamin C, B vitamins, can help to reduce eye disease, treat infections, and potentially even fight cancer. It's shown an ability to help kill numerous types of cancer cells, specifically pancreatic cancer cells. It also has anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties.
Not only that, but go to the store and buy some in the frozen fruit section. Go home and make a smoothie with it. It taste amazing too! How can something so great for you taste so great as well? Natures medicine is fruit. It's the ideal diet for humans, I've said it before and I will say it until the day I die!
You can tell I'm excited about this. Let me show you some photos of the flower and the tree itself.
This amazing fruit also goes by the name "graviola", so you might have heard it referred to as such. Although these next pictures were found online and not taken in my yard, I want to show you what the fruit looks like. I also want to show you some Soursop products we regularly buy:
Since many fruit trees flower then go to fruit, I'm sure we can expect some fruit in the next few months! I just hope it grows to maturity before it gets too cold here! If so I guess we will wait til next season (probably early spring).
Thanks for stopping by, Steemians! Remember, you can't put a price on your health, so eat your medicine!
