Mulberry Tree (Morus alba hybrid) Seeds

My first boyfriend mailed me a box of mulberries from his homestead, romantic, right? Not quite. By the time it arrived, the box was leaking fermented juice and smelled like a winery gone wrong. That’s when I learned mulberries don’t travel. They’re meant to be eaten barefoot, under the tree, juice on your fingers and a grin on your face.
 
About:
Mulberry Trees (Morus alba hybrid) are graceful, fruiting trees treasured for their fast growth, shade, and delicious berries. Their distinctive leaves, sometimes mitten-shaped, sometimes heart-shaped, make them stand out in any garden. The fruit starts white, turns red, and ripens to a deep purple-black, attracting birds and humans alike. Perfect for cozy yards, permaculture plots, or a legacy tree that may outlive us all. Berries can be used for jam, pies, or eating as is. Check your state for restrictions before purchasing please.
