White Mulberry | Morus Alba | 350+ seeds | Wine Jam & Gin!

Please find for sale 350+ fresh White Mulberry seeds (Morus Alba). I also sell the Black Mulberry (Morus Nigra) and also do a double pack of both varieties.

Mulberrys have been grown in the UK since roman times - aside from being beautiful trees, the fruits historically were used to produce wine and jams. Today they are also extremely popular for people to flavour their own gin (it's delicious!). Some people think Black Mulberry falvours gin better - but I have both snd csnt tell the difference...both delicious!

Germination Guide

Mulberry seeds benefit from cold stratification. Stratification is a process of simulating natural conditions that the seeds must experience before germination can occur (if a seed germinates in the middle of winter it will die). In the wild, seed dormancy is usually overcome by the seed spending time in the ground through a winter period and having its hard seed coat softened up by frost and weathering action. This cold, moist period triggers the seed's embryo; its growth and subsequent expansion eventually break through the softened seed coat in its search for sun and nutrients.

• Get a handful or two of vermiculite, perlite or sterile compost (microwave compost in a plastic bowl for 3 minutes) then allow to cool.
• Add a little water to the mix. Should be moist but not wet
• Place in small ziplock bag
• Place in bottom fridge or in cold shed/outbuilding for 6-8 weeks 
• Spread bag contents on a tray of moist compost.
• Cover very lightly with compost or vermiculite
• Keep in a warm place 15-22c
• Seedlings should appear after 20-30 days
• Keep moist - best to place seed tray inside a waterproof container and water from the bottom
• Pot on as required
