Can anyone ID this tree for me?  The leaves are shiny medium green, and the clusters drop late June/early July.

Comarish59 writes: Definitely a fruit-bearing mulberry. A word of warning, you don't want this within 20 feet of a foundation, driveway, sidewalk, or concrete patio. It has VERY strong lateral roots that are very effective in breaking through concrete. It is also very bad about getting into sewer and water lines. Posted: 2:45 am on December 1st
