A southern California Pawpaw patch

Saw that you’ve also been growing and fruiting PawPaws from other threads and I posted on the Bill Whitman thread and am getting a bunch of advice but thought I’d cross post here as well in case you have more advice.

I’m intrigued by what I’ve been reading about Pawpaws. I love sugar apples and mangoes and sapodillas and suspect I will like Pawpaws too! Am going to find a way to try some varieties. In the mean time, like any good fruit growing addict, I’m thinking about how to grow them in my yard :slight_smile:

Any suggestions on varieties or approach to take?

I have a good spot that gets Sun until about 2-3pm in the afternoon that I currently have a large Redbud in that I’m going to take out. Or can grow them in some space on the side of the house where they will get 4-6 hours of morning Sun and then shade all day. However, this will need to be in a large pot. (At least for now). Will post a pic once I’m back home next week.

Thanks in advance!
