Red Lady
Carica papaya
Red Lady is an extremely popular F1 hybrid papaya widely grown around the world for its dependable performance and high yields. Bred by Known-You Seed of Taiwan, it produces medium to large elongated fruit averaging around three to four pounds with thick, sweet red-orange flesh. Red Lady is especially valued for its tolerance to papaya ringspot virus, a major disease of papaya, which makes it more reliable where the virus is present. Most plants are self-pollinating hermaphrodites that bear at a low height, easing harvest. The flavor is sweet and the fruit ships well. As a vigorous, virus-tolerant, heavy-yielding hybrid, Red Lady is a leading choice for home and commercial permaculture orchards in warm climates.Read more
