Detailed seed germination instructions.
2 seeds per pack. Although not technically a tropical fruit, the native U.S. pawpaw has all the makings of one. Fruits grow to 2-6", with an excellent aromatic flavor of banana and pineapple. Trees grow to 10-15ft, and are hardy to well below 0F. Native to much of the Eastern U.S., and north to the Canadian border. Fruits remain little-known, and are not grown commercially as they last only 2-3 days once picked. Seeds are freshly cold stratified, with further stratification suggested for a few weeks prior to planting. #937
