Pawpaw fruit.

Sizes available: 1024×767 | 300×225

The pawpaw is the largest edible fruit native to America, with a flavor that is similar to banana and mango. It is no longer widely cultivated, because the fruit does not store or ship well. Several species of the pawpaw tree (Asimina) are native to North America.
