Morus Alba

Morus alba, commonly known as White Mulberry, is a fast-growing, deciduous tree native to China but now widely cultivated in various parts of the world. This tree is known for its dense, rounded canopy and deeply lobed, glossy green leaves.  In spring, it produces small, inconspicuous greenish flowers that develop into white to pinkish or even purple-black edible fruits in summer. The fruits are sweet and attract birds and wildlife. White Mulberry is also highly valued for its use in the silkworm industry, as its leaves are the primary food source for silkworms.
