I grow M. nigra from Whitman in a large pot and the fruit is one of my favorites.

Has anyone out there had success growing a black mulberry (morus nigra,

not morus alba nor morus alba x rubra) on the east coast?  If so, what

cultivar?

Whitman Farms indicates morus nigra to be hardy to zone 7, and one

variety (shangri-la) appears to be able to handle humidity (though I

believe Lee Reich states this is a morus alba and rather bland).

Please advise.  Thank you.

George Drosehn (zone 7)
