Paw Paw Trees in the Springtime




See the lovely blossoms on our paw paw trees!?

Here you can see Dad caring for the paw paw trees. He's using a fine paint brush to assist the two trees in polinating.

The first tree has are 27 blossoms. On the second tree there are 147 blossoms! (Dad counted them . . . he says he may have double counted a few of them, but the number is pretty close.)

O thank you for posting these. A lot of people never live to see the completion of their life's work. But seeing these blossoms makes me think I may yet...the final stage: the pawpaw fruit harvested in my parents very own backyard.B
