Mulberry Cultivation: Novice Guide To Ultimate & Proper Grooming Techniques, Care & More (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798859345922)

Several tree and shrub species in the genus Morus, in the family Moraceae, are collectively known as mulberries. The most popular variety is Morus alba, or white mulberry, which is actually native to Asia but has been widely adopted and farmed elsewhere. Mulberries, the fruit of the mulberry plant, are widely recognized due to their often deep purple, crimson, or black coloration.
The mulberry tree is significant in the history and culture of many countries. The sweet fruits of this plant have been prized for ages, and have found use in everything from fresh snacking to the production of jams, jellies, pies, and even wines. Mulberries are a type of berry that are often linked to blackberries and raspberries due to its sweet and tart taste.
The leaves of the mulberry plant, in particular when used for silk production, are highly prized. The silkworms employed in the process of making silk consume the leaves of mulberry trees. This has led to widespread mulberry tree cultivation in regions historically known for their silk production.
Mulberry trees have many cultural benefits, but they also have symbolic significance. Fertility, wealth, and enlightenment are just few of the ideas that go hand in hand with them. Mulberry trees have religious or therapeutic significance in several civilizations.
It is possible that the properties and applications of various mulberry species vary slightly from one another.
