Description
| Pawpaw | ||
| Description | Pawpaw (Asimina triloba), also known as custard apple and wild banana, is a small deciduous tree. The Village of Paw Paw is named after the pawpaw tree! Pawpaws are best known for their healthy fruit, which is described as a mix between mango and banana. As an ornamental plant, its large, tropical leaves make it a unique sight. Wildlife love the fruit. Because our pawpaw seedlings are grown from seed, they are genetically different and able to cross-pollinate to produce fruit.
*Shade while young, fruits best in full sun as an adult |
