Product Description
Black Mulberry Tree / Morus Nigra Plant in 2L Pot, Edible Berries
A small, broad-crowned deciduous tree with heart-shaped dark green leaves, yellowing in autumn, and small green flowers which are followed by dark purplish-red edible berries.
It bears unisexual flowers, the sexes in separate spikes, or catkins, which are small, more or less cylindrical and in no way beautiful. The oblong, short-stalked 'fruit,' which when ripe is about an inch long and of an intense purple, is really a fruit-cluster, composed of little, closely-packed drupes, each containing one seed and enclosed by the four enlarged sepals, which have become succulent, thus forming the spurious berry. By detaching a single fruit from the cluster, the overlapping lobes of the former perianth may be still discerned.The berries can be used in making mulberry wine.
