Morus 'Weeping Mulberry' - Hello Hello Plants & Garden Supplies
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 graceful 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.

Then we spread some wood chips to make a floor and added some "wooden furniture" Such a cozy little spot just right for little people.
