I only have 2 acres. and a lot of multiple grafted trees.

This might be something for you to consider, Robert. I've got all the space I want, and can have as many individual trees as I care to plant, I don't have to do bark inversion to limit size, but I do have one multi-variety mulberry - currently is mostly 'Packy' -a selection Gordon sent me, but also has Stearns, contorted, and a couple of M.rubra selections grafted on as individual branches.
