DESCRIPTION
FLOWER
Morus Alba, known as white mulberry, is a
fast-growing, small to medium-sized
mulberry tree which grows to 10–20 m tall.
It is generally a short-lived tree with a
lifespan comparable to that of humans,
although there are some specimens known
to be over 250 years old.
The species is native
to northern China, and
is widely cultivated
and naturalized
elsewhere (United
States, Mexico,
Australia…)
