Ok. I haven't slipped into the twilight planting zone, then. I feel better. I had absolutely no way to explain or understand a stray papaya in my area. I'm probably going to plant some in pots after this though. From the reading I did, they sound like a fun (mainly indoor) plant to have.

Edible or not, the fig is welcome to stay. Where it is, it's out of the way a bit and our goats are giving us the illusion of being under control, so I don't have to worry about them eating it.

Now I'm wondering if it would be worth using as root stock...But I want to see these fruit ripen first, just in case.
