Mulberry Seeds - White Mulberry - Heirloom Untreated NON-GMO From Canada

Mulberry Seeds - White Mulberry

White Mulberry (Morus alba). This wondrous tree is native to Northern China and produces super sweet, pinkish-white berries. Morus Alba is quick growing and can reach 50 feet in height. Berries are lovely eaten fresh or dried for winter use.

White Mulberry trees are either male or female and therefore, you need both sexes to have berries. Germination is very high and so chances of getting both are great!

** Attention folks in Ontario: Did you know that Southern Ontario is the only region where the native Red Mulberry is found? It is an endangered tree species. Other types of mulberry can cross with Red Mulberry, thereby hybridizing the offspring and contributing to its disappearance. Please consider this.

GROWING INSTRUCTIONS

- Soak Seeds 24 hrs. Follow 90 days cold, moist stratification. For more information on stratification, check out our article "How To Start Your Tree Seeds".

*If you are doing the cold period in your fridge, please check on your seeds. 90 days is an estimate & they may sprout sooner.*

- Plant stratified seeds in pots or a nursery bed using standard potting soil. Heat mats are NOT required & can hinder germination!

- Protect young tree seedlings from slugs, cutworms & rodents. Slugs especially can eat primary leaves as soon as they come up, so be vigilant!
