and even plant taxonomists don’t know which species (red, white, or black mulberry, respectively,
M. rubra, M. alba, or M. nigra) they last ingested for edible or medicinal reasons. Further, I
doubt that most chemical and overseas clinical trials have been vouchered. Still, I keep the species
separate in my Herbal Desk Reference, knowing that I have white and black fruited trees
volunteering, almost weeds, here in the Green Farmacy Garden. I would, myself, use them
generically for food and medicine, though as a botanist, I cannot prescribe such. See other species
for other indications. I’ll bet that in 10 years, someone bolder than I will treat them all generically
as mulberry, Morus spp.
