Here are my papaya fruits today.

The fruit in the center is the same one from my first post. The one to its upper left formed later but has grown larger.

The bud clusters are now in three seperate bunches at each leaf base. As many as 7 buds in each of the three sections. I never knew.

Still dreaming that they'll ripen or get close.....that is, if they can be picked green and "window ripened" like bananas. Anyone know?
