It is in a greenbelt behind my house.
It appears to be a mulberry. The intermittent tri-lobed leaves give it away.

Have 2 mulberry trees. 10 years of age. Male this year have many area of brown wilted leaves. Appears like fire blight....Have apple tree that does have fire blight about 100 yds away. I treat apple tree and it greatly helps. Cannot find info that mulberries can have fb. Proble is new this year. Rainly spring so far, and last 2 years also.
Many, many tree species can contract fire blight. If any has it in the area, then you can assume the the mulberry will as well.

My fruit-bearing black mulberry tree, from which we have had berries for 5 years, is presenting mixed black and white berries this season - mostly white, very soft, unedible white fruit. What's happening? Thanks!
This could be a lack of phosphorus and potassium. Each year add a 10-10-10 application of fertilizer or add compost around the tree. This can help to give it the proper nutrient balance that it needs.

I planted a box Mulberry tree 3 years ago. One trunk, last year I noticed suckers on the bottom next to trunk, I left it alone. This year that sucker next to tree is growing beautiful red berries, the original tree has grown and healthy, why does the original tree not have fruit. I wished for a fruiting mulberry now I have one and don't know how this has happened. Can I take cuttings from the fruiting sucker to get another tree? thank you in advance for your help, as I am perplexed with this tree.
It may be that you have planted a fruitless mulberry, or ornamental mulberry that was grafted onto a fruiting root stock for vigor. If you want the fruiting mulberry, the best thing to do will be to root a cutting from the fruiting rootstock.

My mulberry tree has about 99% fruit this year that is inedible. It has fruit as shown that is hard, popped, and does not ripen. Last year this was about 50% of the fruit. What is the remedy?
This looks like Mulberry Popcorn Disease!

tall. Help. He seems sorry about the tree. says he didn't know what it was when he planted it. I offered to cut down the tree and replace it with a tree that would not exceed 25 ft tall. Doesn't like that idea - says he'll just top it every year so it wont block my view...He lives on a slope and I just don't see him climbing up on a tall ladder at 60 yrs of age and doing that...any ideas to help me out? thank you
Fruitless Mulberry Trees are fast growing and can reach 35 feet or more. Topping any tree is a no-no.
Pruning this size tree would need to be done most likely by a qualified tree service or arborist. I doubt your neighbor will want to invest in that every few years to keep it under control. The replanting of a shorter tree was a good idea.

Wrote this yesterday but did not include the photo. Maybe this will help to get an answer.
The white mulberry fruit should start green, then white, then pink, then red. Black mulberries go from green to pink to dark purple. Red mulberries start out green and ripen to red or dark purple.
After researching, I did find a fungal disease, called popcorn disease on mulberry, that looks similar. I would contact my local cooperative extension service for current information.
