Had a good harvest, there's gotta be 400+ seeds here.

Whoever wants a handful, a small padded package will be around $5.  

They're surely Asimina triloba, as the trees were huge, upwards of 40 feet tall.

PM if interested.

Hey Gary,

I would definitely be interested in a package or two of pawpaw seeds.  Did you happen to keep them moist since harvest?  Research claims that pawpaws are ones that lose viability if allowed to dry out.

Thanks!
Spencer

True.  I planted a bunch immediately, tried to keep the rest moist for a while in case anyone wanted some.  Zero takers, so into a creek the rest went.

Hi Gary,
Apparently there are several of us who would be interested next year.
