Red Lady Papaya: Elevate Your Garden with Tropical Bliss

About the Fruit

The Red Lady Papaya is a tropical treasure that brings an exotic flair to your palate. This vibrant fruit is famous for its buttery texture and a rich, sweet flavor that hints at melons and berries. Packed with vitamins and digestive enzymes like papain, it’s not only a delicious treat but a healthy addition to any diet. Perfect for smoothies, salads, or just relished on its own, the Red Lady Papaya turns every meal into a festive occasion.

What to Know About the Tree

The Red Lady Papaya tree is a fast-growing tropical gem that is both striking and productive. With its hollow, herbaceous trunk and large, palmate leaves, it’s a conversation starter in any garden setting. This semi-dwarf variety can reach up to 8-10 feet tall, making it suitable for smaller gardens or large containers. The Red Lady is known for her resilience to papaya ring spot virus and her ability to produce fruit within a year of planting. Self-fertile, with a striking presence, this tree is an alluring centerpiece that’s also incredibly rewarding.

Harvest Season

The harvest season of the Red Lady Papaya is a joyful time, typically starting within a year of planting and continuing year-round in tropical climates. In areas with colder temperatures, fruits ripen in the late summer through fall. These papayas are a delightful sight, with their sunset-hued flesh and green to yellow exterior, dangling amongst the large, tropical foliage.
