    Yum! Hillbilly mango ;)

    Would be good in a smoothie! When do they ripen? I thought it was late summer, but maybe that's just with the common pawpaw?     Posted 7 years ago

      From what I'm reading, late summer to early fall is harvest time. My sister will be keeping an eye on this one (I found it on her land), so I can go back during harvest time! Posted 7 years ago
