Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Forestry Manual of the Iowa State Horticultural Society
Our native Red mulberry, in timber belts, grows rapidly and retains perfect health on nearly all soils. In isolated positions, especially if exposed to the prairie winds, it soon grows dingy and feeble and dies. The birds usually claim the fruit, so that seed is hard to procure. Strong cuttings, set deeply in the fall, will usually grow. If sprouts are split off from low cut stumps, the lower section is sure to root well.
