I heard that from an botanist recently. Wasn't sure if it was true. I've
been reading that M. rubra is declining in the northeast and that was one
solution that I heard of. Maybe it's declining due to hybridization with M.
alba, and just that alone - or disease.
Matt,
cv. 'Kokuso' is part of the M. alba complex (spp. latifolia), not M. nigra.
