Default mulberry

I'm thinking of buying one (for my Somerset neutral clayey soil) but keep
finding conflicting advice. Everyone seems to agree on a black one but some
sources say that it can't be pruned and must have space to grow into a huge
tree whilst others say "best kept as a small bush" and one magazine (Grow
your own) recommended it for a pot. Does anyone have one? The one I've been
looking at is a St James (may be St Johns). All advice most welcome
