our twenty pawpaw seedllings are planted at 8 feet apart. they were 6-8" tall and potted. metal cages are put around and the interesting thing is how we shaded them: we had a few dozen polo shirts of odd size, so each pawpaw cage is wearing a polo shirt. they received compost, heavy woodchip mulch and daily watering. so far, they look great. thanks for the recommendations and your experience,

Scott
