Re: Nature
After driving past that cluster of plants many times, it seemed that they'd been mis-ID'ed as paw paws or were just the self replication of an escaped specimen plant. Last fall in September and October I scoured the many stalky trees often while driving by without spotting a single flower or fruit. Just the other day, though, and much to my delight, I spied a perfectly recognizable green fruit of the paw paw. I confirmed it within a day or two on the next pass by, so it wasn't just seeing things. Now I have to make some time to go see if I can get one or two to sample. Luckily, there's a public parking place for fishing at a park just up the road, so I can get within a quarter mile or so of the patch by car. Supposedly the fruits don't last long or keep well, so I need to hop to.
