Default Black Mulberry

PLEASE come and take mine or I can send you some of the six feet of
shoots it puts up every year having been chopped back to six feet high!
It's a pain in the bum Peter it will get leaves weeks after all other
trees do, it will shed leaves weeks before others do, it will split very
easily at the stem so that branches become dangerous and it will root
across the garden and produce great thick roots around the trunk.
The fruit will make a terrible mess, staining everything they touch and
they smell awful when they rot.

Apart from that a wonderful tree and worthy of being saved

Janet,

I'd love some Black Mulberries if you have any cuttings to spare. Where do you
live?

Dave.
