    Around Lyon, my place, Morus (white and black species) were cultivated up to the early XX century to breed silkworms .
    There are still few remaining "wild" trees, I use to pick berries every year. Black ones are better than white ones !     Posted 3 years ago

The Black Mulberry

Morus nigra, called black mulberry or blackberry (not to be confused with the blackberries that are various species of Rubus), is a species of flowering plant in the family Moraceae that is native to southwestern Asia and the Iberian Peninsula, where it has been cultivated for so long that its precise natural range is unknown.
