I'm looking for someone in eastern nc who has a pawpaw tree that I could get a couple of male stage flowers from. I have several trees with buds but all are from seeds from the same tree. I live near new bern, nc.
Thanks

Even if they are from same fruit, fruit seeds are not identical twins since each seed derives from a single pollen. So I believe genetically they are more like siblings with different inherited traits if the pollen came from a single different tree, or like step-sibs with same mother and different fathers if the pollen came from different trees.
