I received these cuttings around Thanksgiving, 2025 and for awhile they were looking the same. But suddenly, 1/3/2026, the tips were turning green so I think they are worth reporting on now:

Can’t tell by the above picture but the little nibs have green tips. Not all of them but quite a few have them.

It’s my first time growing mulberries from cuttings. These came from a member of a SoCal gardening group in Walnut, CA who posted that she had free cuttings for anyone who wanted to grab some. I happened to be out of town so my ex drove the three hour round trip to pick a few up for me. It was a happy Xmas gift that he didn’t have to pay with money for. He’s so much nicer as an ex than as a husband.

I have been taking pictures on a weekly basis and if you start at the bottom, and scroll up, it’s more accurate in terms of chronological order. However the first month basically didn’t show any difference. Maybe I’ll do it monthly after this point.
