Shangri La reflects the informal, collector-driven naming culture common among modern American mulberry enthusiasts, who — similar to dragon fruit growers — have propagated and traded named cuttings of standout seedling trees outside any centralized breeding program, giving rise to a wide and loosely documented range of named cultivars in recent decades.
