The leaves are alternate, 7–18 cm (2 + 3 ⁄ 4 –7 in) long (rarely to 36 cm or 14 + 1 ⁄ 4 in) and 8–12 cm (3 + 1 ⁄ 4 – 4 + 3 ⁄ 4 in) broad (about twice as big as the white mulberry's leaves), [3] simple, broadly cordate, with a shallow notch at the base, typically unlobed on mature trees although often with 2–3 lobes ...
Mulberry tree scion wood can easily be grafted onto other mulberry trees during the winter, when the tree is dormant. One common scenario is converting a problematic male mulberry tree to an allergy-free female tree, by grafting all-female mulberry tree scions to a male mulberry that has been pruned back to the trunk.

The leaves range from 4–12.5 centimetres (1 + 1 ⁄ 2 –5 inches) long and 2.5–7.5 cm (1–3 in) wide, and are attached to the tree via petioles. The leaves themselves are usually ovate but sometimes lobed , coming to a narrow point, making them somewhere between caudate and acuminate .
USDA Hardiness Zone: 3 to 9 Red maples are named for the color of their flowers, fruit, and twigs, but these trees also produce brilliant red autumn foliage. Give this shade tree plenty of room to ...

The leaves are much like the flowers when analyzing diversity. The leaves can be singly attached to the stem or alternating, they may be lobed or unlobed, and can be evergreen or deciduous depending on the species in question. [citation needed] The red mulberry can host numerous leaf types on the same tree. Leaves can be both lobed and unlobed ...
How leaves change color in the fall. As the amount of daylight gets shorter in the fall, chlorophyll production in leaves slows down and eventually stops. Chlorophyll gives leaves a green color ...
Morus nigra is a deciduous tree growing to 12 metres (39 feet) tall by 15 m (49 ft) broad. The leaves are 10–20 centimetres (4–8 inches) long by 6–10 cm (2–4 in) broad – up to 23 cm (9 in) long on vigorous shoots, downy on the underside, the upper surface rough with very short, stiff hairs.
