| Description | Morus alba Pendula
Weeping Mulberry Trees are very beautiful small to medium weeping trees with large heart shaped leaves. The foliage is a luscious glossy green and turns a beautiful golden colour in Autumn, hanging down on long gracefull weeping branches. The Weeping Mulberry Tree has the exclusive role of feeding fussy silkworms, making it a bit fancy. It's a long lived tree that is relatively hardy.
The Weeping Mulberry also features small red flowers and small edible red mulberries, which stain paths less than other darker Mulberry varieties. As mulberries are usually too tender to make it to the supermarket, this is a great berry to grow at home.

| Content | | BoxOz Lonicera has been specially developed by Chris, and is our exclusive hedging plant. It has a deeper green foliage, a denser finish and more clearly defined shape than the traditional English Box.
BoxOz Lonicera is the best plant with which to create your perfect hedge or border as it grows quickly and once your hedge has developed its easy to maintain with only a few trimmings a year. New shoots are soft and easy to cut and trimming is an effortless relaxing experience.
Some traditional hedging plants grow only an inch or two a year. BoxOz Lonicera will produce a calf high border in under twelve months, a knee high hedge in around 18 months, and a waist high hedge in 30 months. Almost any soil is suitable, as long as it is not too swampy. Fertilise your BoxOz Lonicera occasionally with a complete fertiliser, and water as required. | |
