North American Fruit Explorers mailing list at ibiblio

Here in Agriculture Canada zone 7a near the northern limit of
commercial peach growing, I have a vague memory of hearing that
one of our local fruit explorers has experimented with a few of
the hardiest cultivars of Morus nigra. He does not sell them
in his nursery, although he sells Morus alba, pawpaws
(native to the area) and American persimmon. We are at the
northern limit of Morus rubra.

Be very careful.
