We have lots of fruitless that get hard pollarded to the same place every year, ugly while pollarded. Get all hollow and rotten and nasty and will never die. I tried to rip some small ones out with 12,000lb winch and they gave me quite the trouble.

I discovered that mulberry is related to Osage Orange. That told me a lot. Their roots are both orange. That's what gave me cause to research.

Square peg, round world.
Mulberry, Osage orange, a black locust all are fluorescent under a uv light. I think they share other properties as well.

Osage limbs are incredibly strong. A neighboring farm had limbs put in along the road for posts. Cars would go off the road in the winter and hit a small post. Owners would be amazed the damage they did to their car.
