Pawpaw
Asimina triloba
39.443, -82.2256
Field Notes
Description:
A shrubby tree, rarely growing higher than ten feet. These are the flowers in early spring, along with the just-breaking out terminal leaves. In the summer, flowers produce an edible fruit, sometimes called a "poor man's banana."
Habitat:
Grows in moist, well drained bottomland soils. Find them growing together in large clusters.
Notes:
I was really hoping to find some pawpaws left over this past fall, but between the local deer population and the local human population, there was scarce amounts to go around!
