The plant Carica Papaya, one of the 22 recognized species in the genus Carica of the family Caricaceae, is often known as the papaya, papaw, or pawpaw. Despite growing up to 8 meters (26 feet) tall and having a palm-like trunk, the papaya plant is not as woody as the name might suggest. Deeply lobed leaves cover the plant’s crown.
