Looking at pictures of the leaves of red mulberry trees, some show leaves that are notched at the base, to make them more of a heart shape, and others show them without the notch.
My question is when are the leaves notched and when not? Are they two different species or what?
To clarify what I mean by the notch, consider a heart shape, such as in a valentine or a playing card. At the top of the heart, it curves inward. That's the notch. The stem of the leaf of the red mulberry tree is attached to the notch. so the leaf is like a heart on a stem. But my question is about the ones that aren't notched, and why not, and when not, etc.
