When fully ripe, the fruit is very sweet and juicy with an unusual, slightly acidic taste. Annual pruning is required as fruit is produced on the new season’s growth. Self-pollinating.

Conditions: Full sun. This mulberry has a very low chill factor making it ideal for subtropical climates. Tolerant of moderate frosts.
