Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Custard Apple in Queensland: With Notes on Its History and Cultivation In order that the history of the cultivation of the Custard Apple in Queensland may be placed on record, it has been deemed advisable to collect all available information relating to the matter and to publish the results in pamphlet form. The work has been carried out by Mr. Wm. Leslie, Assistant Instructor in Fruit Culture, who has gone fully into the matter and has received very valuable assistance in his investigations from many growers. The thanks of the Department of Agriculture and Stock are due to all those who have assisted Mr. Leslie in his endeavour to obtain reliable records, and particularly to the late Mr. Leslie Gordon Corrie, who was one of the first to recognise the value of this fruit and the suitability of Queensland for its production. Mr. Corrie not only recognised the value of the fruit, and recommended its cultivation commercially, but he made extensive plantings at his orchards at Redland Bay and Garden Island, where he tested many types and propagated those showing especial merit. Mr. James Collins, of Redland Bay, Mr. James Pink, of Wellington Point, Mr. William Soutter, of Sunnybank, Mr. Katterns, of Bowen Bridge, and others have also kindly supplied much valuable information which is incorporated in this pamphlet. This pamphlet is primarily a compilation of records of the introduction and cultivation of the Custard Apple in Queensland, together with a description of some of the best, types grown in this State; but, at the same time, it contains useful information respecting the soils and districts most suitable for the growth of this fruit, as well as advice regarding propagation, planting, pruning, cultivation, and manuring, that will be of assistance to growers, and particularly to those who purpose going in for the culture of this fruit. There is no question regarding the suitability of Queensland for the production of high-class Custard Apples, or of finding a market for the fruit when grown, as, on account of its fine flavour, it meets with a good local demand, which is steadily improving. As the fruit becomes better known the demand for it is extending, and given better marketing facilities, the market for it in the Southern States is certain to improve.
