I also have seedlings of a eugenia that not only made it through the snow in ground outside last year but then loaded up with flowers in February and produced a ton of fruit in late April. Usually my outside eugenia flower and fruit late in the year. Ill get some fruit in December/January, and then all fruit and flower are knocked off by a freeze. We got ten inches of snow (unheard of) and down to 18 degrees. The fruit is small, but delicious. Black and sweet.
So is your neighbor's mulberry tree, planted in the ground or in a pot?

What happened to Kaz's account
It is supposed to be equal parts river sand and potting medium – most definitely not fertilizer ☹
Propagation
Easily grown from seeds or cuttings.
Seeds must be harvested fresh from recently ripened fruits, then dried, preferably under a thin mesh, in a shaded area.
Sow the seeds in a mixture of equal parts river sand and fertiliser, then cover with a thin layer of sand or mulch.
Place in a bright area, but not in direct sunlight, and keep the soil moist.
Germination is likely to occur within 3-4 weeks and the seedlings transplant well once past the two-leaf stage.
Cuttings must be taken from active growths on the tree and can be treated with a rooting hormone prior to planting in a similar mixture.
Kaz are you able to text my cell message system is not working right I can read your messages but unable to send message back it says respond with quate , never seen that before when I try to send you a message the site gives me a error message.
A Tropical Concept
The staff was one guy and I assume his wife. They both looked pretty scruffy. He quite talkative and willing to help.
How about grafting onto the lower branches and leaving the upper canopy to help shade the lower part? The tree can help shade itself, even if it's in a sacrificial way.
