Does anyone know where I can buy a Papaya tree or Christmas Palm Tree near Vancouver? Thanks for any help.
You can keep an eye on the Hardy Palm Society site to see when they have a public sale: PNWPEPS: News and Events
Flora Exotica - Exotic Fruit - Papaya Try mail-order from Perry out of Montreal. I've ordered from him several times in the past and his stock is always good but he can be a little hard to get a hold of (especially during the winter). Shipping costs are pretty reasonable as well I picked up my Babaco at the PNWPEPS plant sale about 5 years ago when it was about 3ft tall and its now touching the ceiling (and it has produced fruit in the past).....they are not a common or easy plant to find in Canada. FYI, PNWPEPS sale is always in May, just not sure of the exact date at this time
I see that Phoenix perennials in Richmond has dwarfs listed as available on their mail order site Carica papaya 'T.R. Hovey' - Dwarf Papaya - Caricaceae (The Papaya Family)
