My Red Caribbean papayas are getting large. I'm guessing they should be ripening in the next couple of months. Photo taken Nov. 3, 2015.

Yes, the fruit I got off it last year was so, so delicious!
The fruit should be getting fatter. They weren't getting enough water, though.
Last night we had huge thunderstorms for 5 hours and lots of rain (it was record rain for San Diego). This is very unusual; however, we need the rain so desperately. :>))

Papaya is considered an exotic fruit. Although, papaya plants are very common here in San Diego. They usually grow very quickly and produce fruit very young within a year.

I bought one of these today. It said "Red Caribbean"
It is good that you finally got some rain.
