Mango Pawpaw
Asiminia triloba
Mango Pawpaw was obtained from a collector in Tifton, Georgia. Mango pawpaw are large, native, early ripening and very delicious fruit with yellow flesh reminiscent of a mango. The texture being very smooth. We usually offer grafted plants on seedling stock and Mango pawpaw seedlings grown from seeds collected from our Mango pawpaw trees at the nursery. Space as close as 6' or 14' circles for each tree. Pollination works best when trees are close to one another. For pollination choose a different variety of pawpaw if you order a grafted plant. Select pawpaw or native pawpaw are seedlings. Seedlings will cross pollinate each other. For instance, two seedling Mango pawpaw will pollinate each other, but two grafted Mango pawpaw will not.
