-- Bob, Western Australia, The Sun came up this morning, what a great start to the day. Now it's up to me to make it even better. I've cut this piece of wood 4 times and it's still too damn short.

Big for locust. Agree, doesn’t look like mulberry.

It is either Mulberry or Locust or Osage. No other choices here for how it looks. I have seen a very large mulberry and there are certainly large enough locust around me in NY that it is not unreasonable for that to be the case.

This is mulberry.

If it is mulberry, the pores will be open. If it is black locust, the pores will all be filled with tyloses. A close up of the end grain with a clean slice across a couple of growth rings will tell the tale if you want to be sure. The leaves and buds are very different too, plus the twigs of black locust has a pair of thorns at the base of the leaf petiole. All you need is a twig…...

If it’s Osage, there should be thorns every 2 inches on the twigs. If not, it ain’t Osage…...... Jerry (in Tucson)

Elm is a possibility too, leaves or more clues would be helpful.

I went and got the wood today, I stopped and weighted it on way home just trailer tandom had 11,240 plus abot 400 on tongue

Anyways here couple photos of the branch,s with some buds and a leaf [I think] starting to come out, This may help?

Oh, on something else?? Not really a wood thing but maybe someone will know what this plant is?? Its all over a ladys yeard and I sprayed it with round-up,,teice, and another killer I got from a farm store, Killed everything else but NOT these things?? he wants to get rid of them somehow??

Hi, Thanks, I thought it was but the guy who bought the property lived next to it for 30 years he said and sweared it is not mulberry, so I had no idea what it could be, Thanks

When you cut a mulberry branch or damage the bark, a milk color sap oozes out. Also, the yellow color of the wood gets pretty dark brown similar to the broken branch on the picture.

If it is mulberry, it will move a lot as it dries. At least mine does.

Male mulberry trees do not bear fruit. They produce pollen for the female trees. It’s probably a male and that’s probably why the guy thought it wasn’t a mulberry. Just guessing, but there is a really big male mulberry in my younger brother’s back yard in Kentucky with no berries.
