Description
The paw paw tree is native to eastern North America. They grow wild in our woods and are recognized yearly at a festival in our hometown. They are similar to a banana except they are smaller, have larger seeds and only have a very short time of ripeness (which I have not found yet) they are more bitter if not fully ripe. The blooms are a deep maroon color and hang upside down in a bell like fashion. One of nature's beauties.
