Paw Paw Seedlings- Pickup at Nursery or Local Farmers Market

Paw paws are known for its delicious fruit and unique flavor. These seedlings thrive in well-drained, rich soil and require a partly sunny location to grow optimally. Seedlings under 3-4 ft should be shaded in the summer because too much sun will cause leaf burn. Often considered a native treasure of North America, the paw paw tree can reach heights of up to 30 feet and produces large, greenish-yellow fruits with a custard-like texture once mature. Cultivating paw paw seedlings can be a rewarding experience, as they are relatively low-maintenance and resistant to pests. Starting from seedlings allows gardeners to nurture and witness the growth cycle of this fascinating tree from a young age, ultimately leading to the delight of harvesting their own paw paw fruits.  These seedling will usually take 5-6 years to bear fruit and two trees must be planted for pollination. Whether planted in a home garden or an orchard, paw paw seedlings can add diversity and flavor to any landscape.
