Papaya is a tropical fruit tree known for its large, sweet, and juicy fruits. The papaya fruit is often enjoyed fresh, in salads, smoothies, or desserts, and is also valued for its digestive enzymes, particularly papain, which aids in digestion.
The Papaya tree is fast-growing and typically has a single, unbranched trunk topped with large, lobed leaves. It thrives in warm, tropical climates and produces fruit year-round. The fruits are typically oval-shaped with a green to yellowish-orange skin when ripe, and the flesh inside ranges from orange to pink, encasing numerous small, black seeds.

Grafted trees are genetic clones from their mother plant, they always produce a fruit that is identical to the mother plant. Additionally, grafted trees start producing fruit much faster than trees grown from seed. Since they are clones, even small trees have the genetic age of the mother plant and are ready to bear fruit as soon as they gain some size.
