I know I'm a little late to the party, but does anyone in the household like figs? Check out Ficus afghanistanica:

I love Brown Turkey figs but have never tasted anything else. Something I may look into :)

I have several species of figs but this isn't one. The "fingers" of the leaves are much longer than these. Plus, all of my figs are now going dormant for the winter and this baby is going strong.

Yes, they are!!! I'm 99.9% convinced that it's a papaya. I'll only be 100% when I see the fruit.

In some parts of Central America, Papaya seeds are dried, crushed and used as a seasoning that resembles black pepper in taste..... Just a tid bit.

Have you ever had papaya seed dressing?? OMG to die for!

Baytown, TX(Zone 9b)
