Unit price perMorus alba
White mulberry is a hardy, fast-growing deciduous tree with a long history of cultivation across Asia, Europe and beyond. It is most famously grown as the primary food source for silkworms used in silk production. The tree is also known for one of the fastest movements in the plant kingdom, with its flowers releasing pollen at speeds exceeding half the speed of sound.
The sweet berries are edible once fully ripe, ranging from white to pale pink or purple depending on the individual plant. Fruit can be eaten fresh, dried or used in jams, desserts and baking. The leaves are highly nutritious and have long been used as a high-protein stockfeed for poultry, livestock and other animals. Adaptable and productive, White Mulberry makes an excellent shade tree and can be pruned to suit smaller spaces.
Approximately 30 seeds per packet
When to Plant (Australia)
Tropics: Autumn to spring
Subtropics: Autumn to spring
Mild climates: Autumn to spring
Cold climates: Spring after frost has passed
Planting / Sowing
Sow seed into a quality seed raising mix and lightly cover. Keep consistently moist but not waterlogged during germination. Position in a warm, bright location and transplant seedlings once large enough to handle. Plant in full sun to part shade in well-drained soil. Mulberries are adaptable to a wide range of soil types and establish quickly. Trees typically begin producing fruit within 3–5 years from seed.
Due to quarantine restrictions, TAS has an 800g limit per each seed variety and WA has a 10,000 seeds limit per variety.
