Pawpaw (Asimina triloba) Cultivars Southern Climates: 5 DELICIOUS Varieties for Zones 7-8 (&9a).
Вставка
- Опубліковано 17 сер 2024
- Tropical Treat, Sunflower, Susquehanna, Potomac, Shenandoah, select cultivars of Asimina triloba which are better suited for the south than the north. We've grown a couple dozen different cultivars for years here in Zone 6a Massachusetts, and have determined which ones are late season, long-summer varieties better suited for Zones 7-8 (& parts of 9a)
Thank you.
Gr8 video.....being in Georgia this really helps me to decide on which cultivars to try. Pawpaws are on my wish list for certain. Thanks for posting! Randy/GA
Well done. You get right to the point with no wasted verbiage. Great video.
Un grand merci de Paris 😊
0:32 What a healthy looking tree! Congratulations!
Thanks for the video, this is a big help! I'm in 9a just barely, not far south from the line to 8. Been struggling to find good info on which cultivars to grow at the bottom of their range. I love your shirt btw!
Great info
having PawPaw popping up everywhere>>They grow wild here>>>but I planted some seed about 4 years ago as I did not have any>>.now I find alot of wild seedlings>>very easy to point out due to the large leaves>>>zone 6
The question : which cultivar from all cultivars have the more mango taste ? One is called mango. is this the one to choose for mango taste ?
0:33 Thank you sir. Tropical Treat tastes better in the warmer climate. It is kind of seedy but it yields a lot of fruit. The seeds make excellent seed stock. They germinate better than most.
What would you suggest for southern California? Thank you.
Where on earth do you find Tropical Treat?!?
Good video. Subbed. Any tips on accelerating growth on paw paw starts? I dont know what cultivar I have but I planted 5 tiny bareroot paw paws and they dont seem to be growing much. I planted them on shade side of a narrow leafed oak tree.
If they've just been put in the ground bare-root, they will be slow the first few years. Especially if they didn't have a feeder root system yet (a fine network of tender roots). The general rule is sleep, creep, leap for years 1, 2 & 3.
In general they like water every day that it doesn't rain, or at least 3x a week. That supplemental water is very helpful to them. Fertilize a little in year three
As far as what varieties you have, if they were bareroot, they were likely just random seedlings, which means the fruit quality may vary. Cultivars are grafted to ensure a consistent clone of the parent plant.
@@abyssquick thanks for the info
If they are not grafted, then they are seedlings not cultivars.
To accelerate growth, suppress all grass/weeds around them, mulch deeply and make sure they never experience drought. Seedlings appreciate shade, small grafted plants can handle sun better because their scion has already gone through the sun sensitive immature stage.
How do you know the hardiness just by looking at the leeves?
Hello! I hope you continue your meet the cultivar videos this year. Do you guys sell seeds? Hard to source seeds down here in Florida for cultivars that will do well here.
Fruit trees don't come true from seed, though seedlings usually have some characteristics of their ancestors. If you want a specific variety, you need to buy a grafted tree or scionwood (& a seedling rootstock if you lack them) and graft your own.
hi, I can't find Susquehanna variety to purchase in ontario. what's the closet variety to this. I want tropical and rich with fruity tastes. I don't want subtle or mild flavors. Can you make a recommendation?
I am in the zone 8a/b borderland in Northeast Texas. Would you be up for selling scions of these varieties? Or, would it be best to get my scions from parent trees that are already growing in warmer climates.
Como consigo sementes destas variedade contigo? (Portuguese/Brazil)
Obrigado!
I am very much enjoying your series on pawpaws. I just discover the delicious fruit a year ago and would like to try growing them. The problem is I am way north in Ontario Canada zone 5a (US zone 4a) Do you think any varieties will survive up here?
they will grow, but i'd advise you to 1. mulch the roots alot ( up to 2ft!! ) during the winter. Don't expect to get fruit though!
if you want to TRY to get fruit, i'd recommend kentucky champion and summer delight.
can this work in zone 4
If you protect it in the winter with warm covering, yes. Also if you plant it on the southern facing side of your house.
What about Zone 9b. It's hard to find the right Cultivars
You are outside the native range of Asimina triloba, though perhaps southern types ("Mango" came from Tifton, GA) is experimental. Florida has many (shrubby) endemic species though they have smaller fruit usually harvested by the wildlife (tortoises etc as with gopher apples). They are more commonly planted to support Zebra (kite) Swallowtails (Protographium/Eurytides marcellus) which exclusively uses Asimina as a caterpillar host, than for eating.
Can these pawpaws be grown in Oklahoma?
depends. do you live in southern or northern Oklahoma?
@@beacon6424 I live in the northern part of Oklahoma
@@piehnoharmony i wouldn't recommend it, it's either zone 6a or 6b. if you live more to towards the south but still in the north it should be okay.
It's weird that you recommend Susquehanna for the south when the Susquehanna region is in south central Pa.
Yes, I recall the cultivar is named for the river as it intersects WV. It's a longer-season cultivar that ripens up late season. While it may grow in PA it's better suited to more southerly locations with long, hot growing summers.
@@abyssquick Thank you
@@EgyptianQueenTiye Peterson didn't name his cultivars after the location that they originated from. He collected plant material from older collections that had themselves been established with scionwood from all across the native range. From this starting point, he bred pawpaws for years before selecting the cultivars that he named and released. The name Susquehanna just followed his pattern of naming them after rivers.
@@danielsmith336 There aren't rivers in the south?
@@EgyptianQueenTiye there are rivers all over. He chose the particular names that he used when he trademarked his patented varieties. You would have to ask him why he chose to name it after a northern river rather than a southern river. Susquehanna was originally labeled 11-5, then it was named Levfiv at the time of patenting. It was then trademarked as Susquehanna. The parents of Susquehanna were seedlings from an orchard in the Blandy Experimental Farm pawpaw plot planted/grafted sometime between 1922 and 1955. The Blandy Experimental Farm had acquisitions from across the pawpaw's native range. Peterson collected his breeding material from multiple old orchards such as this one as they were the result of previous generation's searches for higher quality trees, rather than having to start from scratch searching for suitable wild trees to breed.
Bro you out here saying cultivar names I haven’t even heard of
Yeah, the cultivars aren't well known in general. But they are well worth planting. They have better flavor, bigger fleshier fruit, and no aftertaste
@@abyssquick thank you!
Thanks for this video. It was exactly what I was looking for. You're the only guy to share this topic. I'm going to add a link to this video on my website. I hope you get a million views.. todd@pawpawfarms
