You are purchasing one 4-6'' tall (pot height is not included) Red Custard Apple (Annona Reticulata) Tropical Seedling Tree Starter Plant in 2.5'' square pot.

Red custard apple is fast-growing, deciduous tree with a rounded or spreading crown and can reach up to 25ft tall.
Long cultivated in S. America for its fruit, it is mainly grown in gardens in various areas of the tropics for its edible fruit.
The plant needs a tropical climate for good growth, but it can survive in subtropical conditions. It is less drought-tolerant than the sugar apple and prefers a humid atmosphere.
Prefers a moist, sandy loam with a pH around 6 and does best in low-lying, deep, rich soil with ample moisture and good drainage.
Trees come into bearing in 4 - 5 years from seed.
With adequate care, a mature tree will produce up to 100 pounds of fruits a year.
The sweetish fruits are eaten raw and often they are used in preserves. The redish flesh, like the other Annonas, is pulpy and contains numerous brown seeds. When fully ripe the fruit is soft to the touch and the stem and attached core can be easily pulled out. Ripe fruits can weigh up to 2.5 pounds. The hard seeds are non edible and toxic, but can be swallowed whole with no ill effects.

Trees grown from seeds are not identical to the parent tree.
Grown organically in Florida.
Pictures are from my garden of the actual plants and actual fruits that I grew.

IMPORTANT!
Small plants need protection from cold, wind, sun, dry-out.
Place all plants in a spot of moderate temperatures (70-80F) in good light but NOT in a direct sun for two weeks until they adjust from shipping in darkness . NO direct sun, NO partial shade - FULL SHADE ONLY! Sun will burn small plants! Allow the plants a week or two to adjust to their new home before transplanting or fertilizing. If you plan to plant them in the garden, gradually increase their exposure to sunlight and outdoor conditions! Temperatures falling below 60F can result in plant damage.

If plants died during the shipment or look sad when received and you can send me the message with the photo the same day or a few days later, plants are still in the original pot, YES, I will replace/refund. If plants are replanted in a new pot/soil, kept outside, overwatered/dried or left in a sun, damaged by cold weather (especially during the night), heat during the day, dry wind, low humidity, sorry, then no replacements/refunds are given.
Plant care instructions are included with every plant or printed on the other side of the included receipt.

One of my two seedlings was slightly damaged while in transit. Everything else was perfect. Shipping was fast, instructions incredibly detailed.

It’s not exactly the size in the photo but it was packaged very well and made it all the way to the west coast unharmed. It lost a couple leafs along the way but not all and the stem is a very healthy color. Being in such a tiny container I can imagine these plants are finicky when transitioning so read instructions carefully. The packaging is done so well you could damage your item when undressing the plant, again use caution.
