From what I know the variety here is the most hardy. I think I've read it was called Russian mulberry. I may be at the northern edge of its range. That said. I hate the stuff. But the fruit can be delicious or quite bland.
I'm in southeast South Dakota. Used to live in Kansas. It was horribly invasive there as well. And nothing really eats it. deer don't browse it so it increases and the good stuff decreases.
Its extremely invasive. I am in the process of killiing hundreds. Do NOT encourage them. One tree will make hundreds of thousands of seeds. Instead of saving them kill them.
I just joined the site. I've been reading plenty on here about crabapples. I am enamored with starting an orchard of apples and crabapples. I'm in southeast South Dakota. I planted my first trees 2 years ago. I'm grafting more and probably running out of room.
