RE: Meet My Two Favorite Volunteers
Not sure the one on the right is papaya...that may be the reason...I have one in my yard half blown over by hurricane...it was also a volunteer. My husband figured out the other day what it is .,when he gets home i will ask him and let you know...

Nice, I'd love to hear! Though I was fairly certain that it was a papaya, especially since it grew out from a bunch of papaya seeds I'd scraped out from a papaya fruit... which however doesn't prove it 100%. So yes, please tell me what he said about it!
I am her sister, She said it was some kind of flower but i look at it and think it may be papaya, I will tell her to take a picture of hers that is a flower, and see if they look alike. It looks extremely similar. We have a neighbor that also has the flower tree/bush that is not the papaya but they also do not know the name of it...now I want to know as well. Have searched just now and can not find it on line...
My bad, I think after looking at mine again...I think yours is papaya,it is just a different variety, on our walk tonight I looked in our yard at ours (mystery bush)and then my neighbor's 6 mystery tree bushes and they are more woody barked. Sorry for the bad trail...I sure wish I could figure out what that bush is though. I have my sister on the hunt also. They remind me of Castor bean tree but aren't. I may post it and ask someone to identify. There is a site on my facebook feed. This is the one in my yard
