![]() Hello my friend. This was an expensive tree, but peterson's pawpaw trees are the most expensive and this seller is the only person that sells potomac in Europe. It was 85 euros. The tree is one meter tall. I will have 14 varieties untill the end of the year, but in this moment i have 2 big sunflower trees, 1 prima, 1 wabash and 1 potomac. I will have soon Overleese, Mango, Susquehanna, Shenandoah, Sibley, Halvin, Tollgate, Greenriver Belle and Lynns Favoritte.

![]() Does anyone know if planting a Pawpaw tree in August would be okay? I want to make sure the tree has time to acclimate a little bit before it gets cool.. usually it doesn't get really cold here till like October but I wasn't sure if that was enough time.. thank you!

![]() In a pot? I think it might freeze and the roots will stay frozen for too long. My suggestion is to put the pot in the ground (bury the pot) or keep inside.
Last year, I kept my paw paws in the ground. THe trees were wrapped with burlap and covered with leaves. It may have been extreme but I wanted no losses since they were small. This year, I don't be covering them at all since they are much bigger now. Erik |

![]() Wow 29 inches is impressive. Of my 3 plants, 2 of them have grown about 2' this summer. The remaining tree only did about 6 inches and then stopped growth in July. The tree looks healthy and has most of its leaves. Not sure why it stopped since the conditions of all 3 are similar. Based on what others are saying, it may take 2 more years to see fruits....

![]() I have been growing pawpaws for years, both grafted and from seed. I graft my own now. I think your trees look fine. I am guessing that the trees were potted when you got them. What happens is that the soil in the pot becomes deficient and when you plant them in the ground and the roots start growing into the soil the problem will correct itself. All of the trees are plenty large enough to take full sun and the trees will fruit much better with full sun. But when they leaf out in the shade they tend to burn with sun on the shade grown leaves. I love pawpaw trees and I love the fruit. Many of mine are small but I have about 30 different varieties.
