Hi! I purchased a bunch of seeds earlier this year and just noticed you have Pawpaw! Is your nursery going to have them available this year? I have a perfect shaded understood spot in my garden here in Louisiana. Thanks!

Roughly how long will these take before fruit production? And I assume they should be bought in pairs for pollination? (Or do they need another type of pawpaw to pollinate?)

Hi Marie,
It takes 4 to 8 years for a seedling to grow large enough to produce fruit. Yes. Pawpaws are generally self-incompatible, so you need two trees for cross-pollination. Plant at least two seedlings.

Hey Richo,
I just ordered you newest book and a few other things, thanks for all you’re doing there. Do you believe you’ll be shipping any of these pawpaw seedlings later this year?
