One of the very first North American plants to be introduced to cultivation this is a deciduous plat in most climates and grows well in full sun in a humus rich well drained soil.

How to Grow Asimina triloba (Pawpaw)

You will need two plants to get good fruit and young plants are the best to look for as this is a species that has a long tap root.

In cooler climates full sun is best for fruit production, in warmer areas choose a position with some afternoon shade.

Mulch around the plant to maintain a cool moist root run.

Fertilise in spring with a general purpose organic fertiliser for fruit trees.
