 2/ Asimina triloba, pawpaw tree

Smooth, custardy fruit that tastes like banana with vanilla. Expect fruit 5-7 years after germination. Not self-fertile, need two trees. Very easy to hand-pollinate. Note: Don’t eat skin or seeds. Skin easily peels away and fruit doesn’t cling to seed. You can eat it like a burrito or cut it in half and spoon out the insides.
