Grafted Pawpaw Trees from Blossom Nursery

These Pawpaw trees are named cultivars, (varieties), which have been selected for the superior quality of their fruit. Over the years, amateur fruit explorers as well as professional fruit breeders have selected Pawpaw trees with outstanding fruit and other qualities which recommend them for backyard growing as well as for establishing orchards. We are now offering some of the best available!

Grafted Pawpaw trees will bear years sooner than seedlings.
If well grown, they may bear fruit as early as the third year after planting.

Our grafted Pawpaw trees are healthy and vigorous plants, growing in quart or one gallon containers.

We grow the rootstocks from seed in containers, then graft them the following year to the cultivars.

These trees are now growing in full sun, and are ready to be planted outside.

Plant them in well drained, fertile soil, keep the area around them mulched and weeded, and give them plenty of water. Keep them well mulched over winter.

Growing instructions included with each order.

Quantities limited, please order soon!

Here is Mark, in the greenhouse, grafting Pawpaw trees in May.

At least two genetically different Pawpaw trees are usually required for cross~pollination and fruit production. Self~pollinating Pawpaw trees have been reported, but are the exception. For this reason, we recommend you order at least two different cultivars, unless you already have other Pawpaw trees growing nearby. You also may order one or more Potted Superior Baby Pawpaw Trees, as pollination buddies.

Here's how some of our grafted Pawpaw trees look in May.
For size reference, these one gallon pots are four inches wide at the top.
