>Our pawpaw crop this year is the best ever.
Our pawpaw crop is probably the worst ever. Wild
pawpaws are probably the most common understory plant around here, and usually
start to drop abundant fruit about this time each year. This year, I have seen
one single fruit among hundreds of trees along our road. Usually, the
fruits drop onto the pavement and splat, often covering sections of road with
pawpaw mush. I noticed large numbers of flowers on the trees this past spring,
so there must have been a problem with pollinators. Anyone else notice a lack of
pawpaws?
