Question

plant 1  

plant 2   Hello  - can you please identify the plant with characteristics as follows:

Has grown up to 15 feet
Was planted in Maryland in May of this year, has yet to bloom
Does not seem invasive, as it has limited itself to where these unknown seeds were planted
Stems, when young, are velvety, but with maturity feel, and look, much like large sunflower stalks. Leaves are very large.

I have attached some images, hoping it would help

Thanks so much,

Jean

Answer
It is a mulberry, but I will need your help in IDing what type of mulberry it is. Is it...

A.Leaves are rough and fuzzy on the top, and softly fuzzy on the bottom?

B. Leaves are rough but NOT Fuzzy on the top, but softly fuzzy on the bottom?

C. Nowhere on the leaves are they rough or fuzzy.

Let me know, then I would be glad to figure out what exactly is it.

Thanks,

Dustin Leigh Morgan
