The Taiwan Mulberry is a prolific and resilient variety prized for its long bearing season and uniquely balanced flavor. It reliably produces heavy crops of small, sweet-tart berries and, with proper pruning, can even bear fruit multiple times a year in the warm Bay Area climate, offering an extended harvest of delicious, nutritious snacks.

• Known for its exceptionally long and prolific fruiting season; with proper care, it can produce fruit from spring through fall in warm climates.

• Produces small to medium, deep red to purple berries with a perfect “9-parts sweet, 1-part tart” flavor balance that is intensely flavorful.

• A self-fertile, fast-growing, and compact deciduous tree (15-20 ft), making it more manageable for smaller yards than some giant mulberry varieties.

• Features thick, dark green leaves that are also harvested for silkworm rearing or used in herbal teas.

• Thrives in full sun and heat, is drought-tolerant, and is well-adapted to California‘s growing conditions.

• Responds very well to pruning, which encourages new growth and can stimulate multiple fruit crops throughout the year.

Flavor Profile:

• Flavor: A perfect blend of intense sweetness with a bright, refreshing hint of acidity, making it more complex than purely sweet varieties.

• Texture: Juicy and soft.

• Best Uses: Excellent for continuous fresh eating, ideal for making well-balanced jams and pies, and a great addition to smoothies or fruit salads.
