Morus Platanifolia (M. Bombycis) (M. Kagayamae)

Morus platanifolia

Deciduous tree which is propagated by grafting on the trunk of M. alba. The branches develop from the point of grafting and in the first year reach 30-50cm. If they are pruned after the danger of frost is over, they will grow vigorously, reaching over 2m before the end of autumn, almost horizontally, to form a wide, semi-globular crown. Emerald green leaves, darker on the underside, with 3 irregular lobes, 20–25cm in length and width. Flowers in April-May in pendulous, greenish-white catkins. Fruit: numerous fruits are formed but most of them fall when they are still green. The few that manage to ripen are red or reddishblack. Growing requirements are the same as M. alba. Pruning short the branches at the end of every winter is recommended. Very popular in the south of France and now also in Italy, especially in seaside holiday resorts as it tolerates saltiness.
