| One pawpaw fruit was spotted today. The developing green fruit blends in with the surrounding vegetation. Can you see it? |
 |
| This single fruit is exciting, but also a little sad. There are several tall, mature papaw trees cohabitating along the stream. The trees are known for flowering nicely; evidence can be found on the blog post from last spring (here). Unfortunately, we never see any fruits. |
 |
| Since we have three pawpaw volunteers in the collection, the mature trees must have successfully reproduced in the past. Fruits are simply few and far between. How do we make more? |
