At what age do mulberries begin bearing?

I ordered a Black Beauty Mulberry from a mail-order nursery and planted it over two years ago. It has grown like a weed - from 2-3 ft high at planting to 14-15 ft high in that short time. However, it is in its third growing season and still hasn't born a single fruit. I'm starting to wonder if it is actually a fruitless variety, not a Black Beauty, since it is so big (I thought 15' was supposed to be its mature height) and yet it has not produced fruit.

Anyone have experience growing mulberries, particularly Black Beauty?
