White Mulberry Trees (Morus Alba) are native to Asia, the middle east, and the eastern half of North America. The trees were widely grown in the 18th and 19th centuries to host silkworms, to supply the lucrative silk trade. Mulberries are generally eaten fresh, but also can be made into jelly or syrups for flavoring ice creams, yogurts, or cakes. This is a rapid grower, typically from 15 to 50 feet, depending on variety. Mulberry trees are often referred to as blackberry trees because the fruits resemble long, slender blackberries. White mulberry trees that produce pure white fruit are rare. Typically, the fruits are white when immature, but gradually ripen to shades of pink or purple. They are a small variety, just a few centimeters long, and far sweeter than the black and red mulberries. The flavor is much like a blackberry, but has its own exotic taste. The White Mulberry tree can have either male or female flowers, or a combination of the two, so we highly recommend planting more than one tree to ensure pollination and fruit production.

Plant in nearly any soil type. Has excellent cold hardiness and drought tolerance.
