Native Mulberry

Native Mulberry

The fruits of the Native Mulberry are small and white, almost translucent in appearance. Like strawberries, they bear their seeds on the outside. They are soft and juicy, with a sweet and delicate flavour, though like conventional mulberries, can vary in taste and texture. The leaves, roots and sap have recorded usage in traditional medicine, while the bark was used for textiles and cordage.

This is the only Native Mulberry tree we have on the farm. Looks like we may have to grab some more when they become available @daleysfruit. Watch this space for more photos as these guys ripen up.
