Garry Grant has been producing papaya seed for use by commercial growers since 1990. Papaya Seed Australia sells organic seed to produce both red and yellow fleshed papaya (in Australia yellow fleshed are called paw paw). The farm is certified organic, OGA Certification No 4508A.
Both bisexual (hermaphrodite) and dioecious seed is offered. Bisexual seed produces both bisexual (67%) and female (33%) trees. Dioecious seed produces female (50%) and male (50%) trees.
Hybrid numbers are prefixed by B (bisexual) and D (dioecious) as well as Y (yellow fleshed) and R (red fleshed). For example hybrid YD1B indicates yellow fleshed dioecious hybrid 1B.
New crosses are being trialled continuously and will be added to this site when found to be commercially viable.
