Sunset (or Sunrise) is a Hawaiian Solo papaya variety, commercially grown primarily on Kauai, has dark pink to reddish-orange flesh and larger fruit than Kapoho. This is a self-fertile variety. The fruit is medium to small size, shape is somewhat round. This is the sweetest Papya variety we ever tasted!
Sunrise is grown and marketed on a large scale overseas, but in Hawaii its production and export are small compared to those of Kapoho.
Papaya does not take shipping well, but recovers easily (do not overwater!).
