Where Do Mulberry Trees Originate From?
The origin of the mulberry tree can be traced back to China, and it has also found its way to Iran. Interestingly, due to Iran’s warm and arid climate conditions, the country is one of the world’s major mulberry producers.
As you can see, various types of these trees are abundantly found in parks and streets.
Mulberries, in all their varieties (black mulberries, red mulberries, and white mulberries), are highly productive trees. They yield so much fruit that it’s almost impossible to use all of it, down to the last berry. That’s why they are known for their generosity, and even their leaves are useful.
Mulberry Leaves:
Mulberry leaves are used for silkworm cultivation, producing some of the finest silk. They are also edible and can be used in various dishes.
The Most Delicious Mulberries in Iran:
The most delicious type of mulberry is the “Mashhadi” mulberry, also known as the “Bakhravayi” mulberry. The best mulberries for cultivation are Mashhadi and Jolfa (a village in Kamar county). Of course, Soolqan mulberries in Tehran are also very famous, known for their sweet and large berries.
