Mulberry varieties
Everbearing mulberries:
Boylston Everbearing — everbearing mulberry from Washington, very similar to Illinois Everbearing.
Cabin Creek North — Large, sweet, dark-colored everbearing mulberry I found along a York county PA roadside.
Collier — everbearing mulberry similar to Illinois Everbearing, but fruits are skinnier and more tart.
Corral — everbearing mulberry selection from Lucky Pittman. His best ranked in terms of flavor.
Hicks — a heritage everbearing variety, thought to be lost but rediscovered in North Carolina by AJ Bullard. Slender, dark berries of average flavor, but where the tree really stands out is its overall productivity and length of season of fruit drop. Traditionally this was planted as a hog feed-tree.
Illinois Everbearing — the standard bearer for mulberries. Natural Morus alba x rubra hybrid, originally discovered in Illinois. Tested as “mostly rubra” according to 2022 SARE grant. 2” x 1/2” berries drop over a long season from June until August. Sub-acid flavor.
Narvon — a nice-flavored everbearing find of mine from Lancaster county PA. Similar to Illinois Everbearing.
Varaha — excellent everbearing selection from Kentucky found and introduced by Blake of Peaceful Heritage Nursery. Tested as “mostly rubra” in 2022 SARE grant.
Dark-fruited mulberries which are not everbearing (and not M. rubra):
Arrabella — cold hardy tree tested to zone 5, found in Burlington VT. Large, black, tasty fruits.
Cabin Creek South — sibling to Cabin Creek North.
Kip Parker — very large, luscious black berries. Favorite of Weston Lombard.
Kokuso 20 — enormous dinner plate-sized leaves and large, sweet mulberries which ripen to a light purple. Leaves make excellent animal forage crop.
Lawson Dawson — somewhat-but-not-quite-everbearing mulberry selection from Lucky Pittman. Great flavor, good size, and tremendously productive.
Northrup — quality mulberry selection from New York known to be very cold hardy down to zone 3-4. Medium-sized, dark fruits with good flavor.
Oscar’s — delicious barrel-shaped, dark fruits are sweet and abundant.
Queen Luscious — Taylor Malone & Eliza Greenman selection. As you might imagine from the name, this one has large, plump, delicious fruits.
Shangri La (aka Tice) — Shangri La is an excellent mulberry desired by mulberry connoiseurs. Very large, dark, sweet berries.
Sweet Lavender — plump berries ripen to a lavender color and are very sweet and delectable.
Unionville — mulberry selection from Chester county, PA by Buzz Ferver.
White-fruited mulberries:
Beautiful Day — small, white mulberries suited for drying.
Iraqi White — soft, sweet tasting white mulberries.
Jennersville White — moderately-sized white mulberries with a firm texture and very sweet taste. I found this one in southern Chester county PA.
Russian White — barrel-shaped mulberries which ripen to white. Dense, mild-sweet flavor makes this variety ideal for drying.
Native red mulberry (Morus rubra):
Please see our selections on the page for Morus rubra, which includes Harmony Grove, and Spillway, among others.
All mulberries are grafted unless noted otherwise — those not grafted are growing on their own roots from vegetative (root) division or cuttings. Mulberry trees grafted & rooted come in 4” x 14” tree pots.
