Dwarf Mulberry Mojo Berry
A dwarf mulberry which can be grown in any garden, unlike the usual mulberry tree, Morus rotundiloba BonBonBerry® Mojo Berry is a small (5’/1.5m) fruiting shrub with a compact, bushy habit and small, heart-shaped, green leaves. It fruits on new and old wood, meaning that it can fruit in its first year; it is self-fertile, and a regular bearer. The long, reddish-black berries are not as well-flavoured as traditional mulberries, but are good for preserves and cooked desserts. Dwarf mulberry Mojo Berry needs a warm, sheltered, sunny site, and is not for colder areas. It can be grown in a large container.
