Bottom one is indeed a paw paw. Florida has a few different native species from that Genus.

As it is growing under a whole bunch of other vegetation the leaves are very sparse.

Paw paws mostly are that way, no matter where they grow.

#1 looks like Tread Softly(Cnidoscolus stimulosus)

The top one is indeed a nettle. I kind of thought it might be so I was careful not to get too close to it. I'm leaving it be where it,s growing. But I'll try to find a new better spot for the paw paw. Thanks for the help everybody. I love this forum ❤️

Well I did some research on native paw paws and digging/replanting them. Not happening.

My chances of transplanting a pawpaw are not very good. For instance, a young tree with only a foot of growth above the ground has a six foot taproot. They are not happy when their roots are disturbed.

So I think we'll let it stay where it is but we'll clean around it a bit because right now it's sort of buried under a fallen tree and it's growing horizontally. It will need to be staked to help it straighten up but that area is obviously good if it's flowering.

Hubby will be very excited when I tell him what this tree is because his passion is butterflies and paw paws are the plants of choice for Zebra swallowtails and we have several of those here.

BTW if anyone is interested in more paw paw info here is a site worth checking: http://www.thesurvivalgardener.com/floridas-amazing-native-pawpaws/

No, they are not easy to transplant at all. I got three from Pietro's Pawpaws (great person to get Pawpaws from). I got two A. obovatas and one A. triloba. I lost the triloba and one of the obovatas, but the other is now three or four years in-ground and slowly growing. I got plants with 6" of growth and they were in planters about 2' in length with the tap roots extending all the way to the bottom. Every now and again, I will get a Zebra Swallowtail in the yard looking for the Paw paw it smells, but either it is too small to notice or the butterflies recognize that it isn't big enough to sustain caterpillars. Either way, I have yet to see caterpillars on it.

You are wise to leave the paw paw ... they do not transplant ... everyone I've ever tried has died. Everyone I've ever know that tried it has killed them. They are touchy even if you buy them from a nursery. They hate root disturbance of any kind.

The tread softly is a great butterfly nectar plant ... especially in late winter and early spring when little else is blooming.
