by Timothy Kane PawPaw may be the most historic native plant you have never heard of!  300 years ago in colonial America, that may not have been the case.  In those days, throughout the mid Atlantic area of the colonies, the fruit of this native tree was one of the most sought after foods by colonists and native Americans.  This fruit was reported to be George Washington’s favorite dessert.  How did a plant with such a storied history and importance become such a secret today?  Making a Comeback in Modern Landscapes I am happy to say that this outstanding, native species supporting small tree, is in the midst of a true renaissance.  The rise of native plants in the last decade has contributed to the comeback of this easy-to-grow native tree.  With its narrow, conical shape and distinct, large textured foliage, it is a landscape standout that is a host plant for several of Lepidoptera species including the Zebra Swallowtail Butterfly.     PawPaw’s Unique Flowers and Growth Cycle From south to north in late March through early May, PawPaw shows off 2” diameter purple flowers that are a great source of nectar for early native pollinators.  While the flowers have both male and female parts, you will need to plant a second PawPaw tree to ensure fruit set.  Once fruit set occurs, it enlarges throughout the summer becoming 2.5” to up to 6” long! Here comes the tricky part.  PawPaw fruit, once ripe, has a very short shelf life which is one of the main reasons that this native treasure fell out of favor with consumers.  The other is that this fruit is insanely popular with native wildlife.  In fact, it is so popular that trees can be cleared of fruit in a matter of a couple of days by a who’s who list of local critters!  While you may never find this fruit in your local supermarket or orchard farm stand, that should not prevent you from loving the fruit and the tree itself.  PawPaw grows wild as a native understory plant in the forests of the East Coast, so it is shade to

Our prices are the lowest + Eco-Grass ships free! (within the contiguous United States).  RECOMMENDED SEEDING RATE: 5 lbs. per 1,000 sq. ft.  |  220 lbs. per acre A versatile blend of fine-leaved fescue grasses that is the responsible alternative to an energy-intensive conventional turf lawn. Eco-Grass, also called Eco Lawn or No Mow, is an excellent choice for solid border areas or footpaths adjacent to native plantings. This grass mix of cultivar fescues establishes quickly, growing into a flowing carpet that can go unmowed or be mowed to a recommended 3” height occasionally or frequently, depending on rainfall, application and intended use. Ecograss grows in most soil types and sun conditions but is not suitable for wet soil or full shade.  The thin blades of the fescues and their relatively deep root systems (4-9”) enhance drought-resistance by reducing water loss and reaching deeper water reserves. When Eco-Grass reaches about 8” it begins to form seed heads and tends to flop over, which can add an attractive naturalistic flow to your landscape. Once established, it is durable under moderate foot traffic. It resists invasion by filling in well, but will not encroach on neighboring plantings. Eco-Grass yields big savings as a lawn alternative by eliminating or reducing the need for pesticides, fertilizers and frequent watering or mowing.  These slow growing, deep rooted fescues establish even in low-nutrient soils.  The reduced need for summer watering makes Eco-grass less attractive than irrigated lawns for pests like lawn grubs, the problematic larvae that feed on turfgrass roots. A cool-season grass blend, Eco-Grass is best planted spring or early fall, on a prepared site from which all weeds or competing species, and the weed seed bank in the soil, have been removed prior to planting .  S pring plantings have the advantage of early-season soil moisture, while e arly Fall plantings have the advantage of moderate temperature
