Looks like a mulberry (tree), but hard to tell at that small size.

doesnt look like my version of mulberry ... and i wonder why it hasnt hardened off since spring growth ... trees usually have a spring growth spurt and then the stems start hardening off towards fall ... but then.. mines not a white mulberry ...

that said ... they could be entirely correct

sometimes you should just delete a comment .. lol...

It is a good comment, no need to delete. The plant looks surprisingly tender as for a tree seedling at this time of year.

I thought the same thing, Ken and windberry; around here, it's always woody by the time it's that big.

I'm guessing it's a red mulberry (Morus rubra). Might help to know the location.

Those two (red and white) can be told apart by their leaf surfaces:

Thanks everyone!!

It wasn’t a very good photo. It‘s attached to a pruned down woody stem! I think you all are correct though.

I just moved to this new home that has all kinds of shrubs, flowers, and trees.

The home used to be the previous owner’s weekend home, so it’s overrun with weeds and ivy. I’ve been slowly doing yard work, trying to figure out what stays and what goes.

Thank you all so much!
