Fruiting Dwarf Black Mulberry
Stain-your-chin Deliciousness!You can always tell the kids who have been in the mulberry patch. They’re the ones with the hands and chins stained purple-red from the mulberry juice and the huge goofy grins on their faces. Fruiting Dwarf Black Mulberry is the queen of mulberries. Considered by berry connoisseurs to be the best tasting of all the black mulberries, the soft, juicy fruits are some of the largest available to the home gardener. The shiny black berries are intensely flavored with a sweet tartness that puckers the lips and pleases the tongue. This is a naturally dwarf mulberry plant, so it branches low. It can be left to grow to its full height of 6-10 feet or pruned to a small tree, depending on where you’re growing it. This type of mulberry can crop multiple times through the summer, with fruit ripening over an extended period of time instead of overwhelming you with one huge crop at once. It can bear from July to September, giving you a summer’s worth of fresh berries! Wait until the fruit is ripe to pick it, because the berries won’t continue ripening once they are off of the tree. Even though the tree is dwarf, the berries are not. They are as large as their full-sized kin.
