Lavender Mulberry

[Don]

hybrid mulberry i found at my uncle and aunts place on the river bank today.



Thought it may be of interest to some of you, never seen nothing like it before. Uncle has a white at his house and the wild black ones grow feral everywhere down the river. Tasted awesome.

Might hit you up for some budwood of this in winter mate😎

[Don]

For sure fulla! Gonna get some branches and do some cuttings. tasted sweet like the white but the faintest amount of acidity like the black. cant say i am a mulberry fan as white is overly sweet for my liking and black just a bit tart but this was pretty nice balance.

Will try and get some seeds if you want Adam?

[John Travis]

Those are pretty awesome! If seeds make it to the states, I'd love to get my hands on some!

[Don]

Will try and get some more this weekend.

Nice find, there is a Sweet Lavender mulberry in the US was found my a CRFGer that his first name escapes me but last name is Bayer!
Burnt Ridge Nursery in Wa. sells it ! But the color is washed out more on this variety, your find has a much deeper lavender color great find.

 If my mulberries are an indication, finished fruiting, should be a good time for getting cuttings, hope you get a fair few.

thanks for offer!  but i wonder if seeds are true?

[Don]

Yeah true Adam. I take it it is a hybrid but could be chance mutation but I dont love mulberries enough to plant out a heap of seeds to find out if they come true. Hehe.cutting would be best I suppose.
