Varaha Mulberry - Naturally Grown

SCION WOOD ALSO AVAILABLE here: https://mediaspearhead.com/peacefulshop/unassigned/mulberry-scion-wood/

Large, very tangy-sweet mulberry with extremely heavy berry production.  UPDATE: In 2025 we had genetic testing done and the results concluded that 'Varaha' is 'mostly M. rubra' meaning it is mostly native genetics!  This exceptional mulberry produces delicious fruit that can measure over 1 3/4" long! This is an amazing find that Blake selected in 2018 in the Highlands, Louisville, KY. Truly a stand-out and superior tree.

Varaha is a prolific producer of long, very soft and luscious tangy-sweet fruits. Just gets loaded down! The plump, long fruits are shiny and sweet with that excellent tangy, sweet, cherry-like red mulberry flavor. Edible at red, ripens and sweetens to dark purple-black. So nice! If you like native red mulberries and/or want a heavy producing, long-fruited cold hardy mulberry, this is it! Trouble free. Large, attractive heart-shaped leaves provide excellent shade. Can be kept smaller through pruning, but will become a nice medium-sized (25-30' tall) shade tree if left unpruned. Peaceful Heritage Nursery Exclusive! One of our best.
