I'm by no means a pawpaw expert, but my understanding is that
they are dioescious, meaning the male &female flowers are on separate
trees.
Hello ~mIEKAL,
Pawpaws are not dioecious Each flower has male and female parts. However in
each flower the anthers release pollen after the receptive period of the
stigma is completed. Also generally the egg and pollen on the same tree are
not compatible. Two genetically different trees are needed for successful
pollination.
