Here is my understanding of pawpaw grafting from reading and what others have 
told me:
1) collect dormant graftwood in winter
2) wait until leaves are pushing in spring
3) whip graft
I am intending to try this out on some root suckers I dug up this spring that 
came from a native tree from the Sabine River bottom donated to me by John 
Harrington.  Do I have this right?  

I germinated some seeds this spring with no problem.  All germinated. The 
root suckers I dug up in February came from John's yard and every one lived.  
I dug up three clumps for a total of about a dozen trees.  Each clump had a 
goodly amount of dirt around the roots.
