Hi Scott,

I've grafted many pawpaw over the years. My advise is use the whip & tongue
or splice graft. Stay away from the bark graft specially if the diameter is
considerably greater than the scion. It is my experience that pawapw don't
heal over the open cutoff area nearly as well as most other tree species.

Also I graft after growth has begun with an inch or more of new growth.

Jerry
