Has an orange color to it, very heavy and not the easiest to split.

Nice! Thanks guys. Good to know I got some Mulberry, red oak and maple mixed in with all that tulip poplar. Does mulberry always have that orange color to it?

When fresh cut, AFAIK, yes. The heartwood surfaces will turn chocolate brown fairly quickly, though.
Mulberry has an interesting history. I always want to know if its a Red or White mulberry but I seem to be the only one.
If one wanted to match wood to fruit tree, that is.

+1 on Mulberry. You have some fine wood there. Enjoy!

Seasons, burns, and looks like hedge or osage. Great wood, purple flame and alot of snap crackle pop!

the monster round? or the stacked wood? I thought that big round is ash but not sure

As I'm sure you know, Red is native to the US and widespread, whereas White is native to China, so I think most of what we see on here is Red. I've never seen White so I don't know how similar it may be....
You'd rather have Ash than Mulberry? How come? The only reason I might go for that stuff in the background is that it is already split and stacked.

We don't have mulberry here but do have lots of ash. Dead, of course.
