Papaya - Southern RedLone 1's Edible FruitsUpdate: 3774 days 24hrs Comments: - Lovely firm red flesh fruit and doesnt seem to attract fruit bats, thank goodness as they fly through my garden and roost for a rest on our orchid tree which is about 60 years old, the papaya plant self sowed in my garden, have left it where it shot. I dont really know what type it is so just guessing it sprouted from pulp cast into the chook pen, from a fruit i bought at the supermarket. Fruiting Months January and December Planted: 2013 Height 2.5 metres Growing: In the Ground Qty: 1 Fruit Harvest: 10 kilograms per Year First Fruited: 2014 Years from purchase in pot Water Given in: Summer Pollination: Self Pollination Fertiliser or Organics Used: horse manure, chook manure Pest Control: nothing Organic Status:Partially Organic Question: I have a red fruiting self sown papaya tree of about 2.5 meters tall which has fruited well this last summer. I saw it growing in the sweet potato patch behind the chook pen and gave it some space, it has been left alone and is rarely watered, gets some runoff occasionally from watering garden beds. It seems I have some new seedlings emerging from the garden bed close by. Should i plant these near the mother tree or is there any guidleines for having more than 1 tree. I have 2.5 acres but mostly its pasture for horses. Was this review helpful? Yes | No | Report |
