Description
Black Mulberry Tree (Morus nigra) is a deciduous fruit tree prized for its delicious, deep purple to black berries and attractive, spreading growth habit. Reaching heights of 20-30 feet, this long-lived tree features broad, heart-shaped leaves that provide excellent shade in summer. In late spring to early summer, Black Mulberry produces an abundance of juicy, sweet-tart berries that are excellent for fresh eating, jams, desserts, and winemaking.
The fruit also attracts birds and other wildlife, making it a great addition to nature-friendly gardens. Thriving in full sun and well-draining soil, this hardy tree is drought-tolerant once established and requires minimal maintenance. With its ornamental appeal and highly nutritious fruit, Black Mulberry Tree is a valuable and rewarding addition to home orchards and edible landscapes.
