In the below table, not all selections were at their perfect maturity. The cultivars with low BRIX numbers will need to be re-evaluated at a later dates.
We believe that all long white mulberries such as Australian Green, Pakistan White and Saharanpur Local are the same. However, their BRIX numbers are different here. Australian Green is the most developed large tree, and Saharanpur Local is a small shaded tree on only a partially compatible rootstock.
We also suspect that Tice and Estero Giant might be identical, but we only have a small graft of Estero Giant on a multigrafted tree. Tice is a large vigorous tree and produced higher BRIX.
Red Himalayan Naples normally has very long fruits, longer than Skinner. On this date we only found smaller and partially ripe fruits.
There are probably few other things I need to warn about, but don't remember now. We will try to do another round of evaluations when the later season mulberries are ready.
The weight measurements are average of 5 fruits with the exception of Naples, where only 3 fruits are used. The BRIX data is based 3-5 juiced fruits and two technical replicates.
We sell cuttings for rooting or grafting from our website in winter and early June reallygoodplants.com
