Nursery contributed plant descriptions

The large 2 ½" seedless black fruits of this Korean selection taste like no other berry that you have ever eaten, they are wonderfully sweet; a precocious fruiter, this cultivar produces freely on a self-fertile, fast-growing 30-40' tree, said to be cold hardier than other Mulberries extending the growing range up into Minnesota. S/M
