Default Re: Papayas

I just grow the ones the birds leave in the yard. Been lucky so far regarding flavor. I want to try the 'Red Lady' papaya, but haven't got around to ordering seeds yet. I don't know what the odds are of the papaya seed growing a type similar to the one the seed came from.

Years back, I recall a post from a member that I haven't seen for a long while. The plant was supposed to be a sub-tropical type of papaya, slow growing, and with fruit about the size of a basketball. No mention of the flavor, though.
