HAWAIIAN STYLE QUILTS® PAPAYA COLLECTION
The papaya is native to Central America although it is claimed by many Asian and Polynesian cultures. You can find a papaya tree or trees growing in almost every yard in Hawaii as it is easy to propagate from the seeds of each fruit. The tree can grow up to 30 feet and the leaves up to 3 feet in diameter. It needs a male and female plant to propagate unless you have one that is bisexual. It is also used as a meat tenderizer because papaya is a prime source of papain enzyme. There are as many recipes for green papaya as there are for the ripe papaya, both styles very tasty!
