The Pawpaw tree produces North Americas largest native fruit that was found growing in abundance throughout eastern central North America from Florida to Southern Ontario. Now nearly extinct, it is finding a revival as people are showing a renewed interest in it's fruit.
The small tree is very pretty with a neat oval shape and the highly unusual flowers turn into clusters of pawpaw fruit - one flower can produce up to 9 large pawpaws. The mango-shaped fruit has a creamy texture and taste somewhat like a sweet banana-mango-custard mix and is rich in vitamins and minerals.
Easy to grow hardy tree that produces best in full sun. A second cultivar or seedling is needed for fruit production.
USDA Zone 5-9
