Sweet David Papaya

Premium dessert papaya — golden flesh with honey-like sweetness

$19.00

Sweet David is a dessert papaya selection attributed to decades of selection work by Hawaiian grower David Maki. Golden flesh with notable sweetness and smooth eating quality. Like all Carica papaya, it is frost-sensitive and requires warm, protected conditions year-round — suitable for outdoor growing in South Florida and similar climates, or container culture brought indoors before cold weather. Full sun, consistent moisture, and rich, well-draining soil.
