Asimina triloba \u2018Sunflower\u2019 is a grafted pawpaw variety known for its good fruit quality and uniform growth. Grafting makes this tree varietally pure and predictable in growth and yield, distinguishing it from seedlings. The pawpaw is a special fruit tree with an exotic character, but is well adapted to the Dutch climate.<\/p>\n
The fruit of \u2018Sunflower\u2019 is large and aromatic, with a soft, creamy texture. The flavour is often described as tropical, with notes of banana and mango. It grows quietly into a medium-sized fruit tree, making it suitable for gardens where a very large tree is not desired.<\/p>\n
About Asimina triloba \u2018Sunflower\u2019<\/strong><\/p>\n In spring, the pawpaw sprouts large, fresh green leaves that give the tree a striking, almost tropical look. Flowering follows with dark purple flowers. Upon pollination, fruits develop, ripening in autumn. In autumn, the leaves turn yellow and then fall off. In winter, the tree is bare and dormant.<\/p>\n Asimina triloba grows best in a sheltered spot in sun to semi-shade, in a humus-rich and well-drained soil. Although \u2018Sunflower\u2019 is known to be relatively self-pollinating, cross-pollination with another variety is recommended for better and more regular fruiting.<\/p>\n Specifications<\/p>\n - Pot size: 3 litres With Asimina triloba \u2018Sunflower\u2019, you get a reliable, grafted pawpaw tree that combines exotic fruit with manageable growth. A suitable choice for lovers of unusual fruit trees who value quality and predictability.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" - Asimina triloba \u2018Sunflower\u2019
