My grandfather likes to grow fruit trees, he often grows papaya seeds in small bags of soil. When the seeds sprouted on the seedlings, he planted the papaya seedlings in the garden. The papaya tree is as small as a pencil, it is only fifteen centimeters high, its "canopy" of leaves is tiny, with only two or three leaves, but the leaves are spread out in a distinct star shape. Although the tree is still green, the young papaya tree has the shape of an adult papaya tree. He planted a papaya tree in an already dug hole lined with ashes. After planting, he cut banana leaves to shade the papaya tree. Three days later, when the papaya had taken root, he removed the banana leaves. He only watered once every two or three days because papaya was not water-resistant, watered a lot, it stagnates the roots, and the tree dies. He used bamboo sticks to fence around the tree to prevent people from trampling or chickens and dogs breaking the tree. The young papaya tree is only as tall as a newly transplanted seedling, but it is sturdy, supple and has a strong vitality. He said that if you take good care of the tree, the papaya will flower and bear fruit in about five or six months. When papaya has fruit, it will be very interesting to look at! The little garden was a joy to him in his old age. In addition to taking care of a few orchids with a tiny garden, he also often recites poems, has a cup of tea with his friends. I am very happy to help him water and take care of the plants.
