Those are what we refer to here in west Virginia as West Virginia actually they are known as PAW PAWs and when frosted on they are very good to eat.

I have never heard of or seen them before but that is probably because of where I live at.

A previous owner had planted a paw paw tree on our land in south Missouri. A half dozen small ones appeared. The house has been vacant for 12-15 years and I haven't checked recently to see if the trees have survived. But they grew very well in SW Missouri. Dan
