Mulberry with Long fruits : Uttarakhand : 020613 : AK-4<\/a> : Attachments (3).\u00a0\u00a05 posts by 3 authors.
\nMulberry tree seen with long fruits<\/span> in the Bhimtal area<\/span> on 23\/3\/13.
\n<\/span>Is this the <\/span>Himalyan Mulberry<\/b>,<\/span> Morus macroura<\/i>?
\n<\/span>Kindly confirm.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\n<\/div>\n
\n

Looks close to Morus alba<\/i>….<\/p>\n


\n
The fruits looked a little longer to me.<\/div>\n
I know the Mulberry that is usually seen with smaller fruit.
\nSo wanted to clear my doubts.<\/span><\/div>\n
\n
\n

Morus macroura<\/i>.<\/p>\n


\n

Thanks for confirming the id.<\/p>\n

\n

Morus alba<\/i>– Shahtoot<\/b><\/p>\n


\n

\n
I had sent these pictures to Dr Shahina Ghazanfar of Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew and Dr Annette\u00a0Patzelt\u00a0of Oman Botanic Garden<\/span>.<\/div>\n
Both feel that\u00a0Morus nigra<\/i>\u00a0and\u00a0Morus alba<\/i> are commonly cultivated here.
\nUnfortunately, this place is very far away from the city, it was not possible to revisit and see the ripe fruits.<\/span><\/div>\n
\n
\n

It is clearly M. macroura<\/em> with infl longer than 5 cm and acuminate leaves.<\/p>\n
