Q&A – What is this tree with smooth bark and huge leaves?
Question:
I would like to identify this tree found on our acreage in the Hardy, Arkansas area. This is the only one of these trees we found on our 40 acres of land. It has huge leaves and smooth bark. What is it?
Answer:
This is a mulberry. From the picture you can’t tell what kind of mulberry it is. This is a younger tree. As they tree matured the leaf shape will change and develop lobes and sinuses. Mulberry do have a fruit which is a great food source for wildlife.
