The mulberry tree is a deciduous tree belonging to the genus *Morus*. It typically grows to a height of 30 to 50 feet and features broad, heart-shaped leaves. The tree produces small, sweet fruits that can be red, white, or black, depending on the species. Mulberries are often enjoyed fresh, dried, or used in jams and desserts.
These trees thrive in a variety of soil types and are commonly found in temperate and subtropical regions. The mulberry tree is also significant for its role in supporting the life cycle of the silkworm (*Bombyx mori*), as the larvae feed exclusively on its leaves.
