Perfect timing! I live in a colder climate but I have a dwarf “hovey” papaya and it’s doing amazing actually. It’s one of the fastest growing trees I own and it fruits at just 3 feet tall! I really want an Inga tree too!

Thank you so much! I am trying to find out what can grow in our area, as a newby, and LOVE this. Papaya is the best tasting thing on earth. Thanks for your channel and thanks for your in-depth explanations! Now I have to do binge-watching of your channel. Hope you keep more coming. Peace

I'll happily help you clear some space for other future tropical's via taking a couple red lady papaya's :)) But I'm in LA. Your fruit garden is filling in nicely. Thank you sharing your videos and tips!

I just found your channel, it’s very interesting. I live in Selma and would like to start trying to grow some of those different fruits. Do you sell those starts, or can you let me know where I can maybe buy some? I’m always looking looking for different fruits and vegetables to grow.

Great Video. What was the plant in between the papaya's? The one that looks like elephant ears. Is it full sun?

I have a beutifull white fleshed guava fruit tree.Last strong winds we had here in the central valley broke the stake/support that was holding my tree secure. The morning after I stepped out to see my 10' foot tall fruit tree warped almost touching the ground. I immediately corrected the situation and nourish it back to life. However it did not produce flowering this season? Before the wind incident I relocated a peach tree that was about 6 feet from the guava tree. I wonder if the problem not producing this year was product of damage due to winds or the removal of the peach tree?

Yeah, I learned the hard way about watering in the winter, I lost all of them. I'll try to better next winter.

What’s the taste difference between sunrise and sunset papaya I know they are sweet but does one test better then the other or similar.

How do you plant the on the ground? Like size of the hole and mixture of soil. I am in florida so here is very sandy.

[mosthated]

Can you airlayer those other branches on the papaya tree ?

This is awesome! What part of central California? I’m in Bakersfield… not sure if that constitutes central California….. it’s zone 9b where I’m at…. I’ve been planting fruit trees in my yard last two years. Ive had avocados 🥑 and guavas fail on me out here…. Maybe specific drought tolerant varieties? Keep
Posting videos!

Have you try growing Hawaiian papaya? Is it too cold sensitive?

[cactuscannon]

I am growing papaya trees that I started from a grocery store fruit. Is there a way to tell which variety it is? Also, can some trees turn out to be male non-fruit-bearing trees?

10:15 pm tonight 7/7 my wife chased off an opossum on the patio, eating some cherry tomatoes . Lol . I saw a mocking bird make a pass on them on his daily morning travels for food . Oh well, even in suburban Cerritos "all kinda people at the dance" 🇯🇲❤💛💚

One thing I have researched high and low and nowhere can I get this answer. What are old papaya trees used for? Are they structurally sound to build something with or can you burn it or do you simply just throw it away?

I planted a Red Papaya on a mound and doing great thru our Winter - no watering
- can you do a video on your Starfruit such as when it flowers and
when it sets fruit - I have flowers on Kembangan & Kary still from late
summer to mid winter and no set - Thanks
