Morus alba

Morus alba, commonly known as white mulberry, is a deciduous tree native to China. It has broad, lobed leaves and produces white or pinkish fruit that is sweet and edible. The tree is valued for its fast growth, aesthetic appeal, and multiple uses—its leaves are the primary food source for silkworms, which produce silk.

It adapts well to various climates and soils, making it a versatile species for agriculture, landscaping, and silk production.
