Thanks Kaz for providing fresh, healthy mulberry cuttings! In the previous order, I’ll give you an update...
The Black Pakistan cuttings were rooted. No leaf growth yet, but I did the scratch test on the bark and most are still green.
The Red Himalayans were grafted. To my surprise, most are still green and a couple of leaf buds on a few cuttings are showing signs of growth.
Now the bummer part. Not sure if it has to do with rootstock and scion compatibility issues or my grafting technique, but already many Australian Green grafts have dried out. It appears Australian Green variety is even more finicky at grafting than the White Shahtoot variety. I think I would like to try a few more Australian Green cuttings and, hopefully, I can get that bad boy to graft successfully...
