Annona haematantha is a tropical South American woody vine or small tree in the custard apple family, named for its blood-red flowers. It is a rainforest species and is not commonly grown, so most care information is general to the genus.
Annona haematantha is a species of flowering plant in the family Annonaceae. It is a tree or liana native to northern Brazil, the Guianas (French Guiana, Guyana and Suriname), southeastern Colombia, Ecuador, and Peru. Friedrich Anton Wilhelm Miquel, the Dutch botanist who first formally described the species, named it after its blood-red flowers (Latinized forms of Greek αἱμάτῐνος, haimátinos and ἄνθος, ánthos).
