Morus kagayamae - Mûrier Platane Stérile

Morus kagayamae 'Fruitless' (Sterile Plane Tree Mulberry) is an essential small tree for creating a broad area of shade, perfect for relaxation and enjoying the outdoors. Its branches, which grow from a straight trunk, spread widely to form a natural parasol that provides welcome protection from the summer heat.

Its large, three-lobed leaves measure 20–25 cm across, with a glossy dark green upper surface and a lighter underside. It is an ideal choice for planting on a lawn or near a terrace, where its generous shade can be fully appreciated.

Easy to grow and highly adaptable, it thrives in any well-drained soil, including poor, dry, sandy, or calcareous soils. It appreciates warmth and performs best in a sunny, sheltered position protected from cold northern winds.
