I just found a mulberry tree that appears to be smack bang in the middle of its fruiting. This is a good month plus after all other mulberries around here stopped fruiting. Is this a[n unusual] late summer mulberry, or is it just our wierd cool summer throwing off yet another plant?sb,
Speaking of mulberries, when the traditional purple ones mix with small children the result tends to be a big mess. :-)In a conversation I had with Dr. David Griffith, earlier this summer, he was telling me of a Pakistani physician friend of his who indicated that every year during 'mulberry season' , he sees a rash of broken limbs(arms & legs - not branches) from folks falling out of the trees while eating berries.
Pomona has had references to white mulberries as tasting and being non-staining. The name "afghanistan" shows up frequently. Any comments or recommendations on mulberries that kids like and won't stain everything?I've yet to run across a white-fruited mulberry that was to my liking - just a bit of sweet, and sort of a 'grassy' taste.
