Just received response regarding pawpaw tree suckers. I forgot to tell you they are apparently coming off the roots out away from the tree.

Suckers are suckers, whether they come from the roots, the main limbs, or the base of the tree. Mowing them down might be an option but I would still vote for digging down and pulling them off to keep them from resprouting. Best wishes with your paw paw tree.
