Pakistan Mulberry – Long Fruit Loaded with Flavor

Pakistan mulberries are known for their extra-long berries—up to 4 inches!—with a rich, fruity flavor that’s perfect for fresh eating, drying, or adding to desserts. The deep red to black fruit ripens over a long season and is a real standout in any food garden.

The tree grows fast and can reach 30+ feet, though it responds well to pruning if you’d like to keep it smaller.

✔️ Extended harvest window
✔️ USDA Zones 8–10 (Zone 7 may work, but the tree will experience some winter damage)
✔️ Heat-tolerant and productive

Now available at the nursery and on our website. If you’re planning a backyard orchard or just want something a little different, this one’s worth a spot in the garden.

Meet the ‘Cheropugy’ Nanking bush cherry!
It ripens a little earlier than our other varieties.

Our Cheropugy bush is loaded right now—an early-season treat that proves you don’t need a full orchard to grow great fruit. Hardy, compact, and beautiful enough for the front yard, this is one of our favorite edible landscaping picks.

Have you tried Cheropugy yet?
