When is a Papaya Tree Dead?

[Carolann R]

Thanks Carey...I talked to Jan down at Pahoa Market today - we picked up some UH (not GMO) sunrise papayas...5 plants. She says that the life span is really about 5 years so that makes sense. I cut one down yesterday and the other is coming down today, but we are putting 5 wonderful ones back in as well. The ones we have had are males too, and out of the five new we'll get a little more pollenation action I think.

Got a rainbow chili plant...she only charges 1.00 for each of the plants we got and they are all nice and mature - not just starts - about 10" tall.
