@ArboriusOwns I live in the jungles of NYC so planting those trees are not in the picture now. Perhaps later in life. Thank you for the information :)

On my way through West Virginia we went miles out of our way just to see Paw Paw West Virginia. I wanted to see some paw paws. This summer I went canoeing down the Merimec in Missouri. So many along the banks but of course they weren't ripe yet.
Wish we had em up here in the mountains of New York State.

Great video. I've been to Paw Paw, WV many times, and never really knew exactly what a Paw Paw fruit looked like. It's a pretty little town. Worth a ride through.

Good info but everybody knows it's actually called the Indiana banana because it rhymes. LOL

@7Nubi There are a few garden catalogs that sell the trees. You can probably find them online also. You'll need more than 1 tree though because they need to cross pollinate. Also if you live were u get late frosts into spring they may not fruit because the flowers come out before the bee's do.

The fruit is edible, but you have a lot of seeds to deal with. I do not know how it tastes like but have been told it is sort of like a banana or a little citrusy. It ripen in September to October and is usually brown or yellow when it is ripe.
Good Vid Arborius. Keep 'em coming.

My plan is to make banana bread out of them this fall and my daughters want to collect some and sell them. The ones on my hill probably won't be ripe until October since we had a mild wet summer.

Never heard of a Paw Paw. What's the fruit taste like, Any good or is it strictly a survival fruit. Nice yard,

Actually I'm gonna have to let you know this fall. My parents always talked about how they made shelters out of them but they never showed me what they looked like. Earlier this year I read the description of the tree in a plant identification book and realized I had them growing all over my hillside. I was told they taste like bananas.
