Edible Landscaping Select Pawpaw

I received a quart-sized seedling asimina triloba from Edible Landscaping about 2 days ago. The seedling has just broke dormancy, as have my other established pawpaws. I have planted it in the yard, watered well, covered with shade cloth, and added mulch. It already is putting out a tiny leaf. Yippee!! My plan is to keep it well watered but not soggy throughout the spring and summer. I will keep it covered with the cloth this year. If it reaches 2 ft by the end of this year, I will remove the cloth in 2016. If not, I will let the cloth remain but adjust so that a little more light can reach it.
