Thiessen Saskatoon (Serviceberry) vs Trader MulberryAmelanchier alnifolia Thiessen Morus x Trader SOLD OUT SOLD OUT
Thiessen Saskatoon is a deciduous shrub that produces delicious edible fruit. It is one of the most productive saskatoon varieties. Its fruit is great in pies, preserves or eating fresh. The Trader Mulberry is a rare find. Named for the Trader family who brought the mulberry from Germany when they immigrated to the U.S. in 1982 and planted the original tree at their new homestead in North Dakota. This tree still bears fruit today! Similar to the Illinois Everbearing, but more winter hardy, this mulberry is a cross between white and red mulberry trees. This vigourous tree will produce large, sweet-tasting, virtually-seedless, black fruit throughout the entire summer and is great for fresh eating, jams, and wine. Do not plant near walkways or driveways as the berries can stain. THIESSEN SASKATOON (SERVICEBERRY) QUICK FACTSTRADER MULBERRY QUICK FACTS
