泡泡属（学名：Asimina）又名巴婆果属，是少數在溫帶生長的的木兰目蕃荔枝科落葉木，北美原產。其树被称为泡泡树，果實可以食用，通常被叫作泡泡果或寶爪果，雖說其是溫帶果樹但非常耐寒。 种 狭叶泡泡树 Asimina angustifolia Raf.：分布于佛罗里达州、佐治亚州、亚拉巴马州 木泡泡树 Asimina incana (W.Bartram) Exel：分布于佛罗里达州、佐治亚州；异名Annona incana W.

Asimina is a genus of small trees or shrubs described as a genus in 1763. Asimina is the only temperate genus in the tropical and subtropical flowering plant family Annonaceae. Asimina have large, simple leaves and large fruit. It is native to eastern North America and collectively referred to as pawpaw. The genus includes the widespread common pawpaw Asimina triloba, which bears the largest edible fruit indigenous to the United States. Pawpaws are native to 26 states of the U.S. and to Ontario in Canada. The common pawpaw is a patch-forming (clonal) understory tree found in well-drained, deep, fertile bottomland and hilly upland habitat. Pawpaws are in the same plant family (Annonaceae) as the custard apple, cherimoya, sweetsop, soursop, and ylang-ylang; the genus is the only member of that family not confined to the tropics. Fossils date to the Cretaceous.
