Morus nigra, commonly known as the Black Mulberry Tree, produces small white flowers in spring which result in the large, black, juicy berries in summer. The foliage is mid-green and develops yellow tones in autumn before falling. It will grow to about 8 m tall and spread 10 m but can be contained with trimming as necessary. Morus nigra is commonly grown as specimen with the added advantages of fruit and summer shade. It is also commonly included in a mixed planting or simply grown for fruit production.
