    The Pawpaw tree (Asimina triloba) is a unique and exotic addition to any garden, known for its lush, tropical foliage and delicious, custard-like fruit. Native to North America, this tree is celebrated for its large, oblong leaves and striking fruit that tastes like a blend of banana, mango, and melon. Enhance your garden with the exotic charm and delightful flavors of the Pawpaw tree. Perfect for home gardeners looking to grow something truly special and enjoy a taste of the tropics in their backyard.

    • Height & Spread: The Pawpaw tree can reach a mature height of 15-30 feet with a spread of 10-20 feet, making it an excellent choice for small to medium-sized gardens. Leaves: The leaves are large, up to 12 inches long, and have a tropical appearance with a deep green color that turns to a vibrant yellow in the fall.
    • Flowers: Before fruiting, the Pawpaw tree produces beautiful maroon flowers in spring, adding an ornamental touch to your garden. Fruit: The tree bears large, greenish-yellow fruits that can weigh up to a pound each. The fruit has a creamy texture and a unique flavor reminiscent of tropical fruits.
    • Light Requirements: Pawpaw trees thrive in full sun to partial shade. While they can tolerate some shade, more sunlight promotes better fruit production. Watering: Maintain consistent moisture, especially during the tree's early years and dry periods. Pawpaw trees prefer well-drained, slightly acidic to neutral soil.
    • Planting: For optimal growth, plant your Pawpaw tree in a location with good air circulation and space to spread. Pruning: Minimal pruning is required. Remove any dead or weak branches to encourage healthy growth and airflow.
    • Ornamental Value: With its lush foliage and attractive flowers, the Pawpaw tree adds beauty and interest to any landscape. Native Plant: As a native plant, the Pawpaw tree supports local ecosystems and provides habitat and food for wildlife.

    Testimonials

    "Came in perfect condition--thank you!"

    Natalie

    "Amazing Plants! I was so happy to see these way larger than the plants pictured because I know how slow most cycads grow."

    Matthew

    "This is the first time I've ever ordered plants online, so I had no idea what to expect. When I saw the description of 'comes in a 4" growers' pot' I figured I'd be getting some fairly small plants--nope! The bamboo palms were fully 2' tall from root to top leaf, and perfectly healthy. All 5 plants were VERY well secured in their box, to the point that the bottom layer was even spray-foamed to the cardboard! I couldn't ask for a better experience and I'm so excited to see these plants grow. Five stars!"

    Nathaniel

    "Thrilled with my purchase! This seller went above any beyond! The packaging was very careful, the plants are so much bigger than I expected, and I was given more than what was depicted in the item description. 10/10 all round!"

    Trisha

    "This is SO BEAUTIFUL! Packaging was perfect and efficient, plant was in excellent condition. I'm in love with this plant and I will definitely order more."

    Seller shipped a plant that was not the correct species. After I provided the seller with photographs of the incorrect tree species, the seller went silent and has not, to date (09/10/2024) refunded the money or even replied to my request for refund.

    What was shipped is NOT Asimina triloba. I paid for Asimina triloba. The listing was for A. triloba. But the shrub/tree delivered was not A. triloba.
