Black Mulberry
NEW ARRIVAL for 2025
Morus nigra
Black Mulberry! This species has been cultivated in southwestern Asia for so long that its precise natural range is unknown. With its crooked, wide-spreading habit and juicy, dark red, purple, or black fruit (the largest of the genus, at 1"), the black mulberry is a must-try for fruit lovers. It has a slightly acid flavor and can be eaten in large quantities.
Mulberry trees grow well when planted in full sun but will tolerate partial shade. Select a spot, preferably one sheltered from the wind, that’s not near any buildings, underground pipes, or fences. It’s a good idea to space each mulberry tree at least 15 feet apart, with larger varieties up to 30 feet apart.
