Rollinia mucosa, Baill. (Annona mucosa, Jacq.). CachiMan Morveux. A small tree first described by Jacquin from specimens growing spontaneously in the forests of Martinique, and said by him to be rarely cult. In habit it bears a close resemblance to the common custard-apple, Annona reticulata. Lvs. oblong, pointed at the apex and base: corolla gamopetalous in the form of a roundish body from which 3 oblong lobes spread outward in such a way that it not inaptly represents a tricorn hat: areoles of fr. gibbous (convex) not papillose nor aculeate; fleshy pulp very viscous and not very well flavored.—R. Sieberi has been referred to this species, but Pere Duss, in his Flora of the French Antilles has kept the two species distinct. The above text is from the Standard Cyclopedia of Horticulture. It may be out of date, but still contains valuable and interesting information which can be incorporated into the remainder of the article. Click on "Collapse" in the header to hide this text.
