The Great Pawpaw Experiment

, ,

There were only 3 seeds in the bag, not the 5 that I expected. Still free. Still more than one.

3 seeds and a little dirt

I have put one in a pot about thumb deep.

Starting point

The other 2 are back in the bag and in the refrigerator.

So elaborate

Since they have to get and stay cold to germinate and I don’t trust NC winter to actually do either long enough to be useful, I’m hedging my bets.

Last winter would probably have been effective. I suspect that the 2 previous years were not.

    Fun experiment! Can’t wait to read about & see (and perhaps eat a decade from now) the results!

      When Jesse was working on the woodpecker tree, he was astonished by how many unproductive pawpaws we have back there. I really hope this does something useful.
