Browse Pawpaw Trees Available at Nature Hills Nursery!

Pawpaw trees are native, tropical-looking fruit trees that you might not have heard about! This is a remarkably cold-hardy and disease-resistant tree that grows large, edible, custardy-textured fruit that is to die for!

Their unique blooms range from red to purple and are pollinated by beetles and flies. These trees are not the best at pollinating themselves but this prevents a tree from being inundated by these large fruits - some of which can range from 7 oz. to as much as 2 lbs, depending on the variety.
Interested in growing your own Pawpaws? Fruit growing in your own backyard is definitely more valuable and tastes great. Nature Hills has you covered with a wide selection of amazing Paw Paw Trees! Amaze your guests with a tropical-looking tree and its unique, and flavorful creamy fruit!
