Cheekoo from seeds

[ruff]

Has anyone tried germinating the cheekoo fruit from seeds in the UK weather before?
It looks like a kiwi on the outside but without the velvety skin and has brown soft sweet flesh on the inside with almond shape like black seeds.

apparently this fruit is known as 'sapodilla' in the UK? commonly found in asian shops though!

Not frost hardy so you could germinate but it prefers warm tropical (hot and humid) conditions so it would be difficult to get the right conditions.

Thanks Bramble Killer, I was just thinking and hoping to grow them in house. Oh well!
