    I also have a plant that I can't identify - it looks like it might be some sort of maple. I'd appreciate any help.
    Thanks and here is the picture.

    If that is Morus Alba, then what is this? I bought several seed packets and the seedlings became mixed up - could this be Paper Mulberry? It has hairy, giant leaves. If that was a mulberry, then what is this.jpg

    Second pic looks like Paulownia tomentosa. A tree, but likely to be cut back to the ground in most winters in zone 5.
