Show Off Your Mulberry Bonsai

I just got this tree into the ground two or three weeks ago in my new raised bed made from everything available in my yard, medium included

I do not know what kind of mulberry it is but I have a large 30 footer in the yard. Started cuttings recently, too.

This might be of some help. https://www.extension.purdue.edu/extmedia/fnr/fnr_237.pdf

It's not much, but it's a Mulberry! Should have been repotted. I didn't get around to it.

Defoliated a few days ago O.O

I noticed new roots growing in a hollow area of the trunk right where they will be needed, and other areas, so I raised the soil level around the tree with an old mirror frame to improve the nebari.
The trunk does flare out a bit more than you can see in the pictures, too.

Starting a few trees, and I must say as a beginner, the mulberry is so damn fun! It is responsive to pruning, good for practicing wiring, hard to kill, buds easily, etcetera... Just an awesome species!
