Papaya 'Sinta' F1
- Product number: 204995
- Origin: Tropical America
- Latin: Carica papaya
DEVELOPED BY THE INSTITUTE OF PLANT BREEDING (PHILIPPINE)
Much sought-after crop for Indonesian and Surinamese cuisine. The perennial plant produces pleasantly sweet, fleshy, elongated fruits. Overwinter them in a heated greenhouse or as an indoor potted plant. The young leaves are a delicacy, and the male flower clusters are also eaten (stir-fry briefly). In summer, enjoy them outdoors as a container plant in a large pot. Already a beautiful foliage plant, it can bear fruit from the 2nd year.
'Sinta' has light orange flesh and is a hybrid with very good growth characteristics, reliable yields, and fruit quality, making it a highly recommended, disease-resistant choice.
