People fruit Cherimoya all the time in San Diego - a lower elevation. Why is Atemoya so popular?

Atemoya should be able to take the heat better here. It's also supposed to be more self fruitful. Mine doesn't seem to fruit though. Maybe I'll try putting a cherimoya next to my atemoya, hmmmmm....

I found out in the past week that even though Cherimoya fruit, Atemoya is more productive. 'African Pride' is the most common type of atemoya there. Maybe adding more variety to the yard could help.
Here is one gardener's story:
