Hello Amy,

Sunflower and Prolific are two available in many nurseries that are amoung 
the best tasting, highly recommend them. Start enjoying them when they start 
hitting the ground. That is when they are usually at the peak of flavor. 
Having said that, many folks also like them after the skin starts turning 
dark. 

There are many recipes for pawpaw. Generally the lower the cooking temp for 
shorter time periods the better the flavor comes through. Long cooking and 
high heat are flavor killers. Make some pawpaw icecream.
