Can anyone shed any light on what has happened to my Southern Red Paw Paw - 3 weeks ago it was a picture of health and loaded with fruit - now, it's all but dead and the fruit is falling off??

What little I have learned about Papayas in one year, there is one thing they cannot stand & that is wet feet! I believe yours has succumbed to root rot.

Thanks for that,
I suspected that was the case, but it is growing in a raised mound (about 600mm above the normal elevation) so I thought it was well enough drained - but the constant wet must have gotten the better of it - I will just have to try again.
Thanks again, Paul
