Plant Pick: Pawpaw Tree, Asimina triloba – Growing in popularity, Pawpaw trees mature at 15’-30’ tall by 15’-20’ wide. They can be kept pruned to around a 10’ size for ease of picking the large fruits, the biggest native fruit in North America. Since bloom time is April to May, it’s best to site your Pawpaw in a protected area in case of a late frost.
