The name of the papaya shown is Tainung-1, it is planted in a raised bed inside the greenhouse. The Tainung-1 is a native of Taiwan. I also have a Red Glory papaya from Vietnam and a Gold Maradol papaya from Mexico. Both the Red Glory and Gold Maradol are also fruiting at this time. Lastly I have a Solo papaya from Hawaii, that is a "wild" papaya that seeded it self, evidently from a seed that must have dropped when I was eating a papaya in the greenhouse. - Millet
