Mulberry


I wonder if tap dancers walk into a room, look at the floor, and think, I'd tap that. I wonder about things.....

They look delicious. I planted a few a couple of years ago but they haven't produced yet.


I have nothing clever to put here.

Yes, they do look good. So are they as delicious as they look?

They are pretty good but birds spread them like wildfire.

Birds like them, and they will paint your car with them.

Mulberries are good to eat as is. They make good jelly, jams, pies and wine. Mulberry is my favorite wood to grill on.

Same here. I’d be out riding pastures with the head cowboy and we would pull up to a tree and eat until we were purple smurfs.

We had one right behind our house when we were kids that we climbed and ate mulberries in. Purple stains everywhere!

Mulberry is a close cousin to osage orange (hedge apple or bodark). Makes very good all wood primitive bows.

Yep, it’s a mulberry tree. I have two of them in my front yard. Some years the fruits are big and juicy and about as sweet as anything you’ve ever tasted.

I used to fish a spot on the Maiden Creek where a couple of mulberry trees overhung the river. When the ripe fruits were dropping the carp would school there and eat them up. A buddy and I would head there before sunrise and just hammer them.


Eh...wot?
