Thanks.  I missed the fact that they are "normally" dioecious.  I 
agree that it looks like a male M.alba x rubra.  Which is good- I'm 
raising some seedlings and I want more of the rubra genetics.

Mathew,
I have (what I consider to be) a very good fruiting M.rubra 
selection, made here in southern west-central KY.  Still have some 
dormant-collected scionwood in the fridge, if you - or any other 
NAFEX member, for that matter - is interested in trying their hand at 
grafting it or rooting cuttings.
Contact me off-list.
