GENERAL INFORMATION

• Morus, a genus of flowering plants in the family Moraceae, consists of diverse species of deciduous trees commonly known as mulberries, growing wild and under cultivation in many temperate world regions.
• Mulberry trees do have redeeming qualities and one of the most outstanding is the minimal care they require.
• They're a good source of iron, vitamin C, and several plant compounds and have been linked to lower cholesterol, blood sugar, and cancer risk.
• These berries have also been used in Chinese herbal medicine for thousands of years to treat various illnesses, though evidence to support their effectiveness is weak.

SOIL REQUIREMENT

• Use rich, loamy, and well-drained potting soil that is slightly acidic or neutral in pH.
• The mulberry tree prefers soil that is fertile and rich in compost or manure.
