{"product_id":"822884-1","title":"Custard Apple 'Levfiv'","description":"\u003cp\u003ePeterson selection. Large fruits with extremely few seeds. Sweet with a strong pawpaw flavour.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFortunately, this fruit tree from North America and Canada, which is quite hardy here, is becoming increasingly known and popular. The taste of the elongated, yellow-green fruits is truly exotic, leaning towards banana, mango, and pineapple, and they are full of vitamins. So healthy that there are serious indications of cancer prevention. At least 2 plants are needed for cross-pollination. Young plants prefer shade and need some extra winter protection; later, full sun is also fine, and they can withstand a harsh winter. Eventually growing to 2-5 m, pruning is recommended to prevent even taller growth! The tree's structure is slightly taller than wide, so in the long run, a tree circle of 3-4 meters is advisable. Maintain a minimum distance of 4 m between two trees. The first fruits can be expected after about 4 years, preceded in spring by strangely scented, white to reddish-brown flowers. They do not appreciate sea wind, but slightly acidic soil (on clay soil, ensure plenty of humus) and a mulch layer are much appreciated by the trees. No diseases are yet known in our climate, but there is not much experience yet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c!-- SEARCH-NAMES-START --\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNames:\u003cbr\u003e\nLatin: Asimina triloba\u003cbr\u003e\nDutch: Roomappel\u003cbr\u003e\nAlso: Pawpaw or Prairiebanaan\u003cbr\u003e\nEnglish: Indiana Banana \/ Poor Man's Banana\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c!-- SEARCH-NAMES-END --\u003e","brand":"Vreeken","offers":[{"title":"1 young plant","offer_id":44176137617461,"sku":"822884.1","price":40.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0606\/9092\/3573\/files\/822884.jpg?v=1750781956","url":"https:\/\/www.vreeken.nl\/en\/products\/822884-1","provider":"Vreeken's Zaden","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
