Thanks. I missed the fact that they are "normally" dioecious. I agree that it looks like a male M.alba x rubra. Which is good- I'm raising some seedlings and I want more of the rubra genetics.

Mathew,
I have (what I consider to be) a very good fruiting M.rubra selection, made here in southern west-central KY. Still have some dormant-collected scionwood in the fridge, if you - or any other NAFEX member, for that matter - is interested in trying their hand at grafting it or rooting cuttings.
Contact me off-list.
