Dear Alexis, I have a young mulberry from root stock and growing well this first summer but I haven't looked so long and lovingly at the leaf and now will do so...also it has one lower branch and I'm wondering if I should prune off in the winter to let the trunk grow upwards without it in its way to forming a canopy. I recently was invited to pick mulberries at a friend's and being inside the umbrella of the great trees was wonderful, and sticky, and rewarding as I made lots of delicious jam. Thank you for having and sharing your rapture. Best, Barbara Baer, Forestville

Another student of the leaves! Lovely and resonant.
