Rebecca Gold Pawpaw Description

​

​

​

​

Rebecca's Gold Pawpaw is a Northern California heirloom variety has medium-large and richly aromatic lower quality fruit, late ripening. Introduced in the 1970’s.

​

Pawpaws (Asimina Triloba) are related to custard apples and cherimoya, in the sugar apple family, and yet they grow in the temperate zone, having moved north as Ice Age glaciers receded. Flavours of mango, melon, banana, raspberry and pineapple come from this creamy fruit. Like many fruits, if you don’t know what you’re doing and you let them get bruised, or you pick them under-ripe they won't taste very good!

​

​

Some of the best flavoured pawpaws are: NC1 Pawpaw, Summer Delight Pawpaw, Maria's Joy Pawpaw, Honey Dew Pawpaw,  Chappell Pawpaw, Atwood Pawpaw, Overleese Pawpaw, Caspian Pawpaw, Halvin Pawpaw and Prima Pawpaw.
