Aparently I was wrong. It is covered in fruit.
Under the tree is one of the girls favourite places. It is nice and shady and great for dancing and hiding.

Weeping Mulberry
We have been in our house now for 10 months and we are still getting new surprises in our garden. We have a beautiful weeping mulberry out the front. I'd always assumed ours was an ornamental non-fruiting type.

We had a mulberry tree when I was a kid - and you are right, we used to play under it for hours...
