I had a mulberry in Kansas -- yes they are messy but so is any fruit tree.
The berries are sweet -- I like better than raspberries -- and the tree
produces lots! I used to make pies and they make great jelly/jam.

I wouldn't mind a tree!

I have a tree growing very close to my house, a neighbour identified
it as a mulberry and said he wouldnt recommend replanting the tree (it
now about 4-5 feet tall and the roots have gone 2-3 ft deep). He said
it attracts lots of bugs. I have some space in my backyard and was
thinking of replanting this tree there. Has anybody had bad/good
experiences with mulberries? Also is it native to this area?

Thanks.
