Ron, we are wondering about the progress of the your papaya. Got some seed from U. Hawaii and started a few in our aero garden. Transplanted them, set them outside and already something ate them. Put more seed in the aero and them started germinating in six days. This time we will be a lot more careful and protect them so they might get a bit larger before they are set out. Question, do you start new each year or will the plant survive cool temps. We are in zone 9b, central Florida, and only got a few frosts and only lost some leavers on the banana plants. All info appreciated. Thanks
