Papaya 2nd fruitful season

Aloha!

Last year around late summer; July, 2017, I was showing off my very first successful papaya growing. That tiny tree was packed with enough awesome goodness papayas that I was able to share the fruits and seeds with neighbors and friends. Here is a picture of my my first fruitful papaya tree. Ok, so I’m 5’5” and this tree was slightly shorter than me. I really love how powerful this shorty produced so much fruits.

As of this Sunday morning, here is what that same fruitful papaya tree is producing for me. It’s growing a tiny bit taller but the amout of fruits it produces might be a bit too overwhelming as the baby papayas are so packed next to one another. Even though I’d love to have many fruits, the spaces between them are so narrow. At some point a tiny bit of trimming is necessary but I’m not ready to rid of some of it. Dang it soon...once I congure up enough bravery to prune it.

Do you garden? Do you enjoy watching plants and flowers grow?! Do you like the dirt; earth? I’m not a fanatic but watching plants and flowers grow is one of my very spice in life.

Thank you for visiting me today. And as always, until we meet again, have a delightful day.

Aloha!

Those look good! I love papaya, it's so expensive to buy in the UK though! When I visit India I eat tons of it!

yeah, this fruit is always expensive in countries that don’t ravish fruits but in Asia, papaya is a dime a dozen. India, China, Thailand; etc., of Asia, papaya is so abundant.
