I am currently in Louisville, KY but I grew up near Mitchell, SD, where
Russian/White Mulberry is quite common and I grew up eating them.  I
would think you could grow own rooted IE there, but I do not know.  I
will be curious to know if you see a difference or not in own rooted vs
grafted on white mulberry.

Richard, where are you located? I thought part of the reason the IE
was
grafted to morus alba was to give it more hardiness.  I wonder if I
could
grow own-rooted IE here.  I've got 10 trees in the ground & pretty
easy
setup to layer some of them.
