3. Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary
Mulberry
   Heb. bakah, "to weep;" rendered "Baca" (R.V., "weeping") in Ps.
   84:6. The plural form of the Hebrew bekaim is rendered "mulberry
   trees" in 2 Sam. 5:23, 24 and 1 Chr. 14:14, 15. The tree here
   alluded to was probably the aspen or trembling poplar. "We know
   with certainty that the black poplar, the aspen, and the
   Lombardy poplar grew in Palestine. The aspen, whose long
   leaf-stalks cause the leaves to tremble with every breath of
   wind, unites with the willow and the oak to overshadow the
   watercourses of the Lebanon, and with the oleander and the
   acacia to adorn the ravines of Southern Palestine" (Kitto). By
   "the sound of a going in the tops of the mulberry trees" we are
   to understand a rustling among the trees like the marching of an
   army. This was the signal that the Lord himself would lead forth
   David's army to victory. (See SYCAMINE.)
