PHOTO IS OF THE BLACK ENGLISH BUT THE HICKS LOOKS EXACTLY THE SAME
The Hicks black Mulberry fruits grow a little more full than the English black but the taste is almost the same and they are not as productive.They do fruit a bit later in the year than the English black so if you have one of each you will get a longer fruiting season and who doesn't want to eat mulberries for an extra few months a year.
The mulberry is one of the most commonly know fruits in the world as it can grow in just about any climate.The fruit has a rich juicy berry flavour that can be eaten straight off the tree or mad into a juice or a smoothy.They also have many uses as a plant such as silk worms for silk and the leaves for paper and the fruit for dye.
