Paw paw trees grafting and sun damage.

Hi. I have 2 approximately 6 foot paw paw trees that I just purchased. I moved them to a big pot with good rich organic compost. I read that paw paws do well in full sun producing more fruit than in the shade, so I put them out in the sun. Sun here in houston is oftentimes strong. After about 2 days in full sun, the leaves on my paw paw tree, only about a couple, started to scrunch up and turn brown. I think due to sunburn, should I keep them in full sun, see if the plant gets resistant to the sun, or put it in shade? Also like to ask if I should fertilize if any my paw paw tree. When should I start seeing fruit? Anywhere in houston I can buy fruit? About grafting, how can I graft multiple varieties on my paw paw tree? What's the best grafting method? Thanks.
