What growers say
Taytwo pawpaw is a large, late-season selection from Corwin Davis with mild, sweet flavor and yellow flesh whose skin stays light green when ripe. Grower feedback is limited, though one comparison rated its taste a notch above the related Taylor. It ripens late, around mid-October in Michigan, so it suits longer-season gardens.
Taytwo was considered a bit more tasty than Taylor.
