Hello. I am from Ukraine. I would like to inform the author that in Ukraine in the last 5 years there has been a great excitement and popularity of this plant. We do not call it "pav-pav", but according to the botanical name "Azimina Triloba".
Today, thousands of Ukrainian farmers have planted this plant for themselves and tens of thousands more have such a desire.

I am not a professional gardener, but even I have 4 trees of different varieties growing around my house. This year and next year I will plant about 20 more trees of different best and most modern varieties of Azimina. On my YouTube channel there are several videos about growing Azimina in Ukraine.
On Facebook there are several groups about growing Azimina in Ukraine, the main of which is the group: "AZIMINA in Ukraine", there are 12 thousand participants.
