Executive Summary Custard apple (น้อยหน่า / Annona squamosa ) thrives in Hua Hin's tropical climate , which offers ideal heat of 25–35°C and sufficient winter cooling in December–February to trigger flowering. Trees prefer full sun, well-draining sandy loam soil with a pH of 6.5–7.5, and should be planted 4–5 meters apart, ideally at the start of the rainy season. Once established, they are drought-tolerant but benefit from drip irrigation during the dry months. Balanced NPK fertilizer and annual compost keep them productive. Pruning after harvest maintains manageable height, while pest control — using neem oil and fruit bagging — protects against mealybugs and fruit flies. Trees begin bearing fruit in 3–4 years, with harvest mainly from July to October.
