Dan, as far as pawpaw varieties or selections that would do well in
Minnesota, there are 2 reasons they will not do well if you were to grow them
here. One is that the growing season is too short. And the other is that
normally the accumulation of heat units during the growing season is not
great enough to mature fruit if you did succeed in having a plant survive our
winters until it was of bearing age. Sorry to be discouraging, but I believe
that is what research at the Minnesota Landscape Arboretum found many years
ago. -- Sam Brungardt, St. Paul, Minn. (USDA Hardiness Zone 4b)
