Beautiful Day Mulberry

Morus alba ‘Beautiful Day’

The juice from the medium-small, sweet, white fruit will not stain like the darker mulberries! Eat the fruit fresh, or dry it for snacking later. The tree grows quickly to about 30′, but can be pruned hard each year and kept much smaller. Leaves of M. alba can be dried for a good black tea substitute, or fed to any homestead critters you may be raising – they are very high in protein and great fresh or dried for rabbits, chickens, goats, sheep – and, of course, silkworms.
