  • I only have 2 trees. So I was hoping to boost my yields in a way that doesnt mean hand pollination or hanging a carcass (which I havent seen any hard evidence works, just some anecdotes).

    And I thought if I could propose my idea to others and get them to try it, I might have some alternative methods that are less labor intensive options by the time my trees are ready to bear fruit.

    I plan on doing the carrion-flower bed as I think its pretty cool but it might be an easier sell to my gf if it is a proven way to boost fertilazation, on the pawpaws.




  • I have decided to attempt to convince them of 12 trees. I am planning to omit that they bear fruit unless asked. There are some oaks I can plant the pawpaws north of and can likely avoid needing to artificially shade them. And some sunny spots more that 100ft from any damagable property for the Black Cherries.

    I found a local native plant nursery, so I have emailed seeking prices and availibility of these plants.

    I am most unsure of the staghorn sumac due to their structural fragility, and thicket forming habits. But I may guerilla plant it in a recently cleared homeless encampment near my house to give them more cover next time they move in.

    Morus Rubra (Red Mulberry) 2 female (known males in the neighborhood)

    Asmina Triloba (PawPaw) 2 trees

    Rhus typhina (Staghorn Sumac) 2 trees

    Prunus Serotina (Black Cherry) 2 trees

    Diospyros virginiana (American Persimmon) 1 female 1 male

    Prunus Americana (American Plum) 2 trees
