looking for rare tree

treehunter · 27th April 2008, 05:37 AM

Good morning everyone,

I’m trying to find a WEEPING RED MULBERRY TREE (fruiting)
It sounds like an easy thing to do but after swimming though a few hundred web sites
I’ve just about given up.

I hoping one of you might have or know of a nursery that sales them.
thanks for reading

I am familiar with morus alba in a weeper, which is white mulberry. I am not with red mulberry. Are you calling this red mulberry because of the red fruit?

Mulberries have a rather uncontrollable twig blight disease that makes them scarce in nurseries these days. The weeping white mulberry was an extremely common tree in landscapes years ago.

It's a lot like the white, but this tree produces a fruit that looks like a black berry.
