Mulberry (Black) - Common

Description

A stately tree with heart-shaped leaves and delicious, slightly acidic raspberry-like fruit in late summer. The black mulberry is a long lived tree and is perfect for growing as a specimen as it has a more attractive shape than the white mulberry, with low gnarled branches. This also makes it easier to pick the sweet fruit, though it may take around 7-10 years to produce fruit. Named cultivars are usually much earlier to fruit than this.
