anybody want papaya seeds?

18 years ago

I'm going to post this on a few different applicable forums. I have papaya seeds, both the large Mexican type, and the smaller Hawaiian type, which need homes. They're drying right now. Anyone interested, email me or post here.

triplearth--I don't know how to contact you because your email is blocked and there's no link on your member page. But, from what I know, I don't know that these two are the same. These seeds are from a mexican papaya that I bought at a local asian market. The fruit is very large-- like a small watermelon almost-- and my kids loved it. I'm definately keeping some to grow myself, but I have plenty to share if you're still interested.
