First ever large  Maridol Papaya flowering. (Carica papaya (Common Pawpaw))

They grow with the temperatures. Springs were small and fell off. Early summer were larger..then fell off. Lets see what happens with this.

It just depends on the flowers. If it's thin, then it's a male flower, usually won't set fruit. The perfect bi-sexual flowers produce fruit...or female with male fertilization. This flower looks like a perfect bi-sexual...so it should set fruit.
