Description: The Pakistan Mulberry, or Black Mulberry, produces stunning foliage and fruit that can be up to 5-inches long! Mulberries are self-fertile and easy to grow. Not only is the fruit delicious, but the leaves are also edible and tasty too. Cook the greens as a nice side at dinner or boil them to make tea.
