    Mulberries - the same as blackberries ?

    They grow wild here, Lydia.

    I will go collect them when

    they are ripe.

    Blessings

    Hello Olivia,
    When I was growing up my parents had two huge Mulberry trees in our back yard.
    I use to eat them all the time in the summer.
    I have not eaten mulberries since my dad sold his home.
    I am sure they will be ripe in your area very soon!
    Wishing you a great day!
    Lydia

    I believe we are talking about

    different fruit, Lydia,

    because you say mulberry "trees",

    but the blackberries here do not

    grow on trees, they are just

    brambles with thorns.

    They look similar on the picture,

    though.

    Have a good weekend,

    Olivia

    Hello Olivia, Muberries are different and the trees get very big!
    They are the size of cherry trees.
    lblackberries(which a also enjoy) are totally different than mulberries.
    Wishing you a wonderful evening!

    Yes, I see now that blackberries

    and mulberries are totally different.

    We have no mulberry trees here.

    Those are sweet memories of

    your parents former home.

    I am sure you loved eating

    those mulberries as a child.

    My parents had a huge cherry

    tree in the garden, I adore

    eating cherries.

    Blessings

    Olivia

    Hello Olivia,
    Those are very fond memories of fun and innocent times with wonderful people surrounding me.
    I will always cherrish those sweet memories.
    I am sure you too have many nice memories of your mom and your childhood home.
    My town which my parents raised me in is no where near as nice as it use to be. It is now built up with tracks and it is over populated, so the crime has gone up there.
    When I lived there it was very rural, quiet, innocent and very safe.
    Time changes things for the worst most of the time.
    wishing you a very nice evening!
    Lydia

    Hello Lydia,

    I bet you have a lot of ripe fruit

    to collect in your garden after

    this week of vacation.

    Blessings
