  • Weather in Boquete, Panama
    Since 2002, the world's retirement population has been discovering Boquete as a retirement haven with low cost of living, perfect weather and beautiful people. As a result, unemployment here is low and quality of life is high. Boquete weather is characterized by a warmer Dry Season (December through March) known as Summer, and a cooler Wet Season (April through November) known as Winter. Temperatures are highly dependent on elevation, cloud cover and rainfall, with variances of up to 20 degrees Farenheit between the sea level cities of Panama City and David, to the 1,200 meters (4,000 feet) above sea level elevation of Boquete. Nights and sometimes even days, on the summit of Volcan Baru at 4,000 meters (13,000 feet), can get VERY cold so be sure to prepare for this if you intend to scale the summit. The climatic conditions and sharp incline in topography make for breathtaking beauty, as well as several micro-climates within the valley itself.

I found a tree near Boquete which I cannot find the name for. I asked a local person and he said it was a "papo" tree. I cannot find any information about it on the internet and nobody else that I have asked knows what the tree is.
I am trying to plant some on my property in Volcan but I need the name of the tree so that I am sure to plant it in the right spot so that it does not get too much or too little water or sun. Please help me with this if you can.
I do appreciate your help.
Sincerely,
Liz Waring
