I have a grafted tree.  Could sent a piece of it if you have something to do with it.

What is the difference between the Pakistani and the Himalayan Mulberry?

I have no idea, the tree was grafted though.  You can call exotica nursery in fallbrook/vista and ask him what he used for a rootstock.  Just tell him you bought one a year or 2 ago.

The leaves on the Himalayan are bigger and thicker. The fruits taste similar and great on both Pakistani and the Hiamalayan, but the Himalayan fruits are maybe bigger by an inch or two.

I remember the fruit being the same length but the Himalayan being thinner. Taste fairly similar but I prefer the Pakistani.
