One of my Paw Paw trees looks to be dead all of a sudden.  It appeared fine a week ago and now the leaves are wilted and brown.  There is another paw paw only 10' away and it appears fine.  Any idea what happened?

Any chance it was girdled by rodents near the base?

Not visible, I did look and couldn't see anything.
 
Do the next thing next. That's a pretty good rule. Read the tiny ad, that's a pretty good rule, too.
