Need help identifying tree

Syn · 29th May 2008, 10:17 AM

Hi I am trying to find out what type of tree that is growing on my property. I want to transplant this tree in a different location. It is only about 4 feet tall. But I want to make sure the tree is worth transplanting somewhere else. Here is a link of a leaf from the tree. Any help would be much appreciated.

i would have to agree with mullberry, a picture of its form and some more of teh leaves would help tho to make it 100%

Sorry I have been busy lately . Thanks for all the info so far. I will take a pic of the tree and try to get some more close ups of the leaves asap.

yep, mulberry.

i'd guess Morus alba (white mulberry) especially if you got it commercially, it's pretty common. If its got a really good form with a nice straight central leader go for the transplant, if its rubbish with codominant stems or with the top knocked out just start a new plant.

peace out.

The first two pictures are of the tree I would like to transplant. And the other three pictures are of the same tree in a different location.

white Mulberry or morus alba for sure

This tree gets twig blight almost religiously as it matures causing many dead twigs and branches. Poor architecture as said will result in splitting later on. The fruit can become a disaster underfoot and w birds divebombing purple splatters everywhere. A new fruitless (sterile) cultivar makes the redeeming characteristics of this tree (interesting form, glossy unusual leaves, resiliency) worth considering it though.
