I was hoping I'd find a pawpaw tree with fruits in the neighborhood; but guess what I found.
A male papaya.
Most people don't really take note of this papaya that bears no fruit.
Bearing no fruit does not make it really useless. It's presence around; especially where there's a female papaya makes fertilization and effect of pollination plausible.
Also cooking it's leaves is medicinal as it contains potassium, vitamins and antioxidants which helps in proper functioning of the blood, immune system and cells respectively.
