The King White Mulberry is a rare specimen tree which is both ornamental and edible! Morus macroura is a fast growing, medium sized, spreading to weeping tree with glossy, heart-shaped leaves. As well as being a handsome ornamental tree, the fruit of the King White Mulberry is noted for its exceptional flavour and not to be confused with the bland-tasting white mulberry or Morus alba, which is commercially cultivated as a food source for the silkworm.

In late summer, this rare tree produces impressive, tassel-like, pale green fruit up to 10cm long which ripen over a long period. The fruit is extremely sweet with a honey-like aroma. It can be eaten fresh or cooked in pies, desserts and jam.

The new growth is sensitive to late spring frosts and so trees may require some protection in cold climates to ensure fruit set. The King White Mulberry can also be container grown and overwintered in an unheated greenhouse or conservatory. Ultimate Height: 10m (32'). Spread: 12m (39'). The King White Mulberry is a rare specimen tree which is both ornamental and edible!

Growing Information

Grow mulberry trees in moist, slightly acid soil in a sheltered position in full sun. Prior to planting, incorporate plenty of well rotted manure or garden compost into the soil, and drive a stake into the planting hole to support the tree once it is planted. Plant mulberries at the same soil level as they were growing at the nursery, and use a tree tie to fasten the tree to the stake.

Live Plants

Suttons strives to ensure that all its plants are delivered to you in the perfect condition for planting. While the majority of our nursery plants cope well with slight delays in intransit, sadly, the time it takes to deliver to certain locations in the UK means that we can't guarantee this for some of our smaller plug products and tender bedding and vegetable lines, which do not respond well to the extra journey time. So regretfully while we offer the majority of our live plant offering nationwide, we are unable to ship plugs, begging plants and tender vegetable plants to the following areas: HS, IV41-IV49, IV51, IV55-56, KW15-KW17, PA34, PA41-48, PA60-PA78, PA80, PH40-PH44, TR21-TR24, ZE1-ZE3.

Non Standard Deliveries

Unfortunately like many companies in our industry we are currently only able to supply orders to UK based customers, excluding those in Northern Ireland. We are committed to finding a way that we can resume or normal services again as soon as possible. Please accept our apologies for any inconvience caused.

Very Large items

If ordering any large items marked large lorry items a surcharge of £5 per item will be applied. These items are also not available to areas and postcodes shown under non standard deliveries. We may need to contact you regarding delivery so please provide a contact number with all orders.

We reserve the right to contact you and advise an additional charge where necessary and are happy to quote for carriage of specific products to more remote areas. Some items may not be available to all areas.

What our customers say

"Very impressed with the quality of leek and broad bean seeds you sent. Excellent germination and look forward to a bumper crop. Will certainly be back."

E. Smyth

“I bought all my seeds, potatoes, etc. from your catalogue last year for my new ‘larger’ vegetable garden. I have to say I have never had such success in the garden. The germination was excellent; the quality of plant stock and produce is superb."

Sadie

“I am compelled to write to you and your staff for the exemplary service provided by your company, in an age where the word and term ‘service’ has lost its meaning.”
