Vasconcellea pubescens (Mountain Papaya)

One of ten native Colombian species of the genus Vasconcellea with a habitat between 3.500 and 13,000 feet. In Colombia it is called papayuela and taste similar to a papaya. I have not seen the fruit marketed. Photographed in the eastern Andes mountain range of Colombia (Cordillera Oriental).
