Tiny
I can't believe I've never seen a papaya blossom before. Maybe it's because most fruit-bearing papaya trees I've seen are taller than I am. But this little 5-foot (1.5 meter) tree just outside my office window started blooming this week. It's almost hard to imagine that that tiny little flower can turn into such a big (and delicious) fruit.

Today I have seen something new! I can see there are more to come. Very pretty :)
Ive never seen the plant, let alone the flower. You'll have to keep us posted on it's progress.
That's so pretty!
I not only have never seen a papaya blossom, I've never eaten papaya!
Cute!
Just another wonderful example of God's handywork.
Let's see if it bears fruits.
What a beautiful image of the tiny delicate flower! I must admit that I haven't seen one before too!
I've never seen the papaya plant before. That's a really weird place (bottom of the stem) for flowers... :-O
toute petite et toute mignonne, belle macro
A little white flower in green.

Never seen a papaya plant before, in my mind papaya comes from the supermarket :) Can't believe how tiny the flower is.

This is my first papaya blossom as well. Amazing!
The insect that fertilizes this plant must be quite small to see this tiny blossom. Thanks for posting this informative photo!
What a cute little flower! I've never seen a papaya flower, thanks for showing us :)
a very rare sight indeed. You've done splendidly capturing the mini-flower against the huge tree & leaves (not so easy to do).
It's so delicate! My parents had a papaya tree in their yard, but I never noticed the blossoms.
I have never seen a papaya blossom either. I agree, it is quite small!
What a beautiful leaf!
Funny image: so a big leaf with such a tiny flower!
I love how you has captured this picture
I haven't seen a papaya tree for ages...I also miss the taste of it :(
An itty-bitty flower on a stalk - and a huge beautiful leaf surrounding it. Fascinating. Thanks for sharing this.
