(Morus alba × Morus rubra)
If you love mulberries but dislike the purple stains on fingers or sidewalks then this might be the one for you. Carman will give you large, delicately sweet, creamy-white fruit that doesn't turn mushy when fully ripe like some white mulberries do. Of course, they are great for fresh eating, but with the amount of fruit it bears, you might have to stay up at night to eat all of it! Drying them is an excellent option too. The fruit ripens over a span of a week or two so some folks spread tarps beneath the tree and shake it for easy harvest. With the lighter colour this fruit attracts less attention from freeloading birds.
Carman's origins are interestingly obscure. Here in Ontario it's propagation started some years ago with scionwood provided by a fellow of European descent. By now you will find Carman listed in European nurseries as originating in Canada. So all we can say for sure it has found favour on both sides of the Atlantic.
