You're welcome, Betsy. I can't speak for others, but a friend of mine had an Illinois Everbearing mulberry in Leavenworth, Kansas (USDA hardiness zone 5b), that bore enough berries that I could pick enough for a pie (about 3 cups) in 10 or 15 minutes. It seems your tree should be much more productive. You know, you may be far enough south that you could grow some M. nigra cultivars. -- Sam

Thanks Sam for the reference.
I am just tip pruning the crown midway through summer.
What kinds of yields are people getting from their trees?
