My Pakistan mulberry gets damaged from the cold and it dies down sometimes as close as 1 ft from the graft. It sprouts back new growth and sets a decent crop the same year since it' son new growth. It usually grows up to 15' by end of summer at least.

So I'm guessing it's possible unless someone tried it and proved otherwise.


Thanks,
