But our funniest encounter was building Jeremy a tree house in the only "fruitless" mulberry tree in our backyard in Texas and five years later shocked to find the tree (and the treehouse) covered in big, purple staining mulberries. But they sure were good!LyghteKeeperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16223935327895089487noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-406042802207115346.post-73642271411523213822009-06-03T05:32:30.286-04:002009-06-03T05:32:30.286-04:00I remember a mulberry tree in the garden at home, ...I remember a mulberry tree in the garden at home, and sheltering under it during a sudden rain downpour. <br /><br />We also had one at a college where I worked. All the overseas students used to gather underneath to collect the fruit. Some fruit, of course, fell to the ground. When students walked on them and then into the library, the floor was stained. I am pleased to say that they decided to fence off the area under the tree during the fruiting season, rather than take any more drastic action.Sheilahttp://apostcardaday.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-406042802207115346.post-58385644150810042742009-06-02T15:45:30.641-04:002009-06-02T15:45:30.641-04:00Mulberries dont grow like THAT around here.

I remember my mom taking me out there to pick mulberries. I used to love those things.

Since he hated it, he cut it down. To make sure it wouldn't grow back, he hacked the stump to bits and covered it with lime to kill it. Much to our delight it grew back as many little shoots that eventually grew into a large mulberry bush. Made the mulberries a lot easier to pick.Mother Goosenoreply@blogger.com
