Default Re: Upper Gulf Coast members get-together

The 'nana meet' was super -

Barnet - sounds like you are on target with your nana? all that work will definitely pay off. be sure it gets plenty of water also - after your nana puts out new leaves if they have reddish center stem (seen best on bottom side) and thin red outlines it may be a namwah -

I visited a paw paw grower near LSU last year - he had several large trees and said they like lots of fertilizer and compost. I have one paw paw tree about 4 ft - it bloomed for the 1st time this April. (but two trees are needed)
Have you had paw paw fruit?
I am looking for a second pawpaw plant or graftwood or both -
I'll pm you and Darkman maybe we can exchange scions or plants this winter..
