Hi, Ben

It's nice to hear from someone in my own climate! I was thinking the same
thing about Persian mulberries. It's too bad so few people have fruiting
mulberries; I was musing the other day about why they aren't popular. A lot
of the old gardening books caution against the mess mulberries can make on
patios and sidewalks - well, a lot of fruits can stain, that's no reason not
to grow them. I like fruits of both Morus alba and nigra.

If you've ever had a Persian Mulberry (Morus nigra I think) you may think
twice about your raspberry comparison.
I've heard also about Pakistani Mulberry being as good as Persian, but even
larger fruits. Has anybody tried Pakistani Mulberries?
