Kamiya, Laie Gold, is a medium size variety sold in local Hawaii markets and is the most popular commercial papaya in Hawaii.
The fruit is sweet and very delicious. Fruits are produced at about five or six months from planting when the plants are still small.
Developed at the University of Hawaii for Tropical Plant Research, these cultivars are considered the  best available anywhere.

Waimanalo Papaya (X-77)

Grown only on Oahu, Kamiya is a  rounder, larger fruit than the other varieties. Kamiya has a thin,  greenish-yellow skin with thick orange flesh. It is ripe when it yields  to finger pressure; do not depend on color of skin. It is grown for  local market only.

Laie Gold is a papaya of the Kamiya variety that is resistant to the  ring spot virus disease.

~Fruit of Angels~

 Papaya plants produce flowers that are either male, female or  hermaphrodite. Male plants do not produce fruit. Female plants must be pollinated by either male or hermaphrodite flowers to produce  fruit. Hermaphrodites are self fruiting and the most desirable kind. The Hawaiian Solo papaya produce seedlings that are either female or  hermaphrodite but no males. 30% will be female and 60% will be hermaphrodite so you are always assured that you have a plant that  can produce fruit.

This is a very easy plant to grow whether in the ground in frost free areas or pot grown in cold winter climates. The taste of tree  ripened papaya is so much better than what you find in the grocery store.

Tropical papaya is a fruit that used to be  relatively unknown outside of the tropics, but today you can find it just  about any supermarket. Papaya fruit is loaded with nutrients so there is much  to be gained if this fruit strikes your fancy. One serving has high fiber  and potassium, iron, calcium, plus the daily requirement of vitamin A and  three days worth of vitamin C. Papaya contains antioxidants which can  protect from certain types of cancer, such as colon cancer, and is known to  help with digestive problems.

Papaya is eaten just like a melon. Shaped somewhat like a pear,  papaya is very sweet but does not have a  high sugar content. Green papayas contain the most papain, which is an  enzyme that is used to tenderize meat and help with inflammation in the  human body.

Papaya has bright yellow to green mottled skin. When  ripe, the outside skin will be more of a golden color. Other types of papayas turn pink or orange  inside when they are ripe. Christopher Columbus called  papayas the “fruit of angels”.

      Some people say papaya tastes like an apricot sprinkled with ginger. The  fruit is used in all types of recipes--meat marinades, salads, and is often  added to other fruits in both smoothies and dried fruit and nut mixtures.  Red papaya adds nutrients to whatever dish you make with it. High fiber  helps to regulate and clean out your colon. All together it contains a whole  group of vitamins, including A, C, E, B-9 and K.

In addition to vitamins, Papaya contains antioxidants, known as phytochemicals, which can protect the body from heart disease and certain  forms of cancer. These antioxidants protect the body from toxins known as  free radicals, which can attack cells. Papaya also contains a couple of  enzymes which are good at digesting protein. These are chymopapain and  papain. One of the benefits of these substances is that they can help reduce  inflammation for people who have arthritis, osteoarthritis, or asthma.

  Payment hibiscus

We accept online  payments only through PayPal, Cash payments are only  acceptable for in-person payments and cash-on-delivery  (COD). Cash payment can not be sent through the mail.    

       Please only one Paypal payment. SO THE COMBINED SHIPPING  RULE WILL CAN BE USED. Late or Multiple PayPal payments are  NOT eligible for any discount.

We will ship once a  week - ON or BEFORE WEDNESDAYS, because of the special  stamps needed to ship plants and cuttings to you.  This  can only be done at the Dept. of Agriculture.  If  payments are not met before that MONDAY, your items will be  shipped the following week and lose the combined discount  opportunity. Non-paying bidders may receive negative  feedback and will be reported as an unpaid item to eBay.

COMBINED  SHIPPING POLICY

INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING  is not included in this offer.         INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING ON  LIVE PLANTS on a case by case basis.

We will combine shipping  for auctions won on the same week paid with same PayPal  payment.

This policy is good  for auction items bought and paid for in the week ending  MONDAY.

We ship on Tuesdays.

Payment must be  received within 4 days of the auction ending. 

Combined  Discounts Won Auctions

For 2-3 winning auctions, the combined discount is 10% of the total Shipping and Handling charges.

For 4-7 winning auctions, the combined discount is 20% of the total Shipping and Handling charges.

For 8+ winning auctions, the combined discount is 30% of the total Shipping and Handling charges.

As  each order is packed and prepared separately you will pay the quoted S/H charges individually per item. If you buy the same species in that item it  does calculate out the discount (i.e.: additional items)

My stores' combined shipping is built in for same items rather than a varied  selection. Domestic S/H includes postage, USDA certification and inspection, proper packing and delivery to Airport for  prompt delivery.

I can't really change any of these. If you want one of this and one of that, it is hard to discount  much as each different species requires it's own prep, packing, then at USDA each has to be unwrapped and inspected  then repacked. USDA requires us to clean and prepare every last piece before we drive them to the Inspection Station on  the other side of the island.

This requirement takes my wife and I, 2-3 days to pack items and get ready to ship. The whole next day  we drive around the island and get inspected (2-3 hours), then drive to the Airport Post Office to drop off. It takes  the same work with the same type item if you can understand.

Before you purchase After you Receive your Items.
LIVE PLANTS ARE PERISHABLE.

There is the risk when you grow plants that they may die.  LIVE PLANTS are PERISHABLE, guaranteed not to live forever.


US orders ONLY are GUARANTEED for LIVE ARRIVAL . All International orders are shipped at the BUYER's  RISK!

When you order a plant we assume you are prepared to care for it. It is your responsibility to know how to care  for the plant. Do some research before they arrive or seek experienced help.

 Small plants need protection from many things, wind, sun, dry-out. They do well just in the garage or living  room. They need good light but not sunlight (full sun will burn small plants). Small pots dry-out easily. Just sitting in a shallow tray of water works  well. The idea is to keep the plants from dehydrating.


Be careful if you decide to re-pot.  Re-potting voids any warranty. Plants are easily damaged with new/different mix. Use NO fertilizers (this may kill your plants).  Proper care is critical upon arrival. Live Plants are NOT GUARANTEED  to survive under your care. DO NOT expect any live plant to be GUARANTEED to remain alive. Plants are NOT GUARANTEED TO SURVIVE after you begin Care! Live arrival is guaranteed,  eternal survival is up to you.

 IF YOU are NOT able to provide PROPER CARE, PLEASE DO NOT EXPECT plant to be GUARANTEED after it perishes.

NO REPLACEMENT WILL BE CONSIDERED IF YOU HAVE REPOTTED THE PLANT.

 BROWN  THUMB WARNING: Please Do NOT email me after  a week after receiving your plant,  and make a claim it arrived damaged. All photo support  must be as arrived in original condition when received (in  the box and packed as delivered).

If you repot your plant after delivery, all warranties are voided and no replacement is offered.

If repotted, you are responsible for the condition of the plant. NO REPLACEMENT WILL BE CONSIDERED IF YOU HAVE REPOTTED THE PLANT.

Not every plant that I grow survives, and I am aware of that and accept the risk when I order. This is the risk that you as the buyer accept, because there is no way to know what kind  of conditions it will endure in the trip to your door. My responsibility ends when a live plant is delivered to your door.

You are agreeing to these terms when you make this purchase from this listing.

Rare Seeds

Fresh Highest  Quality

When you receive your seeds, you have only 7 days to make any claim. Once planted, seeds can NOT be returned and no refund is offered. All seed sales are final. There are no germination guarantees.

Seller warrants seed to be of the variety and quantity advertised. Safe delivery is guaranteed and seeds lost or damaged during shipment will be replaced at seller's expense. Claims must be made within 7 days of shipment. All other replacements, refunds, returns and exchanges will be  made at the sole discretion of the seller.

  Seed is a live product which depends on many important related grower skills such as proper planting time, seed depth, type of soil, irrigation, proper use of fertilizers, weed controls, fungicides, insecticides, disease free soil, and  reasonable weather conditions during the growing period. Germination is affected by such factors as temperature, moisture content, light intensity and contamination of planting media. These factors are totally out of the seller's control and are the buyer's responsibility and risk. Consequentially,  the seller cannot unconditionally guarantee seed to perform properly regardless of conditions or the buyer's methods or mistakes..
