Is that the one with big leaves?
Common names of mulberries are confusing

I have a Shangri La and the leaves are much bigger than my Everbearing and Pakistani.

same here. leaves are much larger for the Shangri La.
i had originally thought it had to do with water, sun, minerals etc...
but its definately not that.... Shangri La just has larger leaves.

that does look like Shangri-la in the original post.
a small touch of magnesium and/or iron might green up the leaves a bit more.
i didnt know Shangri-la would start from cuttings... good to know, i will try it soon.

some places selling it say its Morus Nigra... others say it is Morus Rubra x Alba - Hybrid.

my rubra starts from cuttings very very easily.
Nigras usually do not.
