Meet the Native Mulberry – a bush tucker treasure you’ll be glad to have in your backyard! This non-stinging nettle is self-fertile, so a single plant is all you need, and it produ ces delicate, almost translucent white fruits that are sweet and juicy; each berry offering subtle differences in taste and texture. Harvesting couldn’t be easier: simply pick the berries straight from the branch. Just take care with the ripest ones; they’re so soft they can practically melt between your fingers. Flowering begins from January to June, with fruit maturing between May and July. Whether allowed to grow into a lush shrub or clipped into a productive edible hedge, the Native Mulberry is a delicious, low-fuss Australian native. Soil: Adaptable to most soil types. Conditions: Suitable for full sun and part-shade. Protect from frost. Size: 3-8m H x 3-5m W Show more
