Hawaiian
Papaya Fruit Plant Seeds (Carica papaya) ~ Grow Hawaii |
 |
Islanders and visitors enjoy me as a
breakfast fruit because I'm delicious, a good source of calcium,
sugar, and vitamins A, C, and G; but listen to this - as a green
fruit, islanders cook me in soups and stews. It's hard to believe
but I taste like squash. Also, my milky sap from green fruits
contain a protein enzyme, papain. If my sap is rubbed on fresh
meat and the meat is wrapped in my leaves and left overnight,
presto - tenderized meat! |

Growing Instructions: Please plant my seeds 1 /2" deep in sandy
soil mixed with organic matter. My plant needs to have good drainage so
the roots will not rot. Water daily and don't let my plant dry out,
especially when young or it will die. Try to keep it in a temperature
range of 70F to 85F, if the temperature is excessive, over 85F, place in
the shade. Feed it according to the instructions of a general garden
fertilizer. |
