I have seen a lot of comments about mulberries on this list. We have a good number that grow wild here in Central PA - both the red and the white. My personal feeling is that they produce a lot of sweet berries, but are otherwise pretty bland.
 
I tasted one in Oregon a few years ago that was very good, but was told that it probably would not survive the PA winters. I have planned to graft some of the many wild ones with "better" varieties. What are the best recommendations for zone 5 ??
 
How difficult are they to graft?? I get good resultes with apples, plums etc.
