Description
One of the Peterson selections, named — as they all are — for a river along which pawpaw grows wild. The germplasm behind the programme came principally from the surviving remnants of five early twentieth-century collections, the best of which Peterson found at the Blandy Experimental Farm in northern Virginia in 1980.
