Red mulberry is a small to medium-sized deciduous tree, growing to 10–15 35–50 feet tall, (rarely 70 ft.), with a trunk up to 20 inches in diameter. It can live up to 125 years. The berries are edible and sweet!

Red mulberry is hardy to subzero temperatures, relatively hardy to drought, pollution, and poor soil, though the white mulberry is hardier.
