OSIGIAN Mulberry cuttings

This Mulberry cultivar is named after Professor Osigian who developed it. Osigian Mulberry became the principal foodplant for the Silkworms for Zoë Lady Hart Dyke at the Lullingstone Silk Farm. Foliage is extremely productive and fast-growing, often producing giant leaves. Growth is stimulated by both winter and summer pruning. Before the Silk Farm was saved by Worldwide Butterflies, the method of propagation was by layering. Now we propagate by taking cuttings which root as easily as Willows! Osigian is not just rare, it is unique to where it has been planted for the Lullingstone Silk Farm. It is not even found in any Mulberry garden anywhere else in the world! We are now offering cuttings for sale, to help spread this cultivar and saving it for posterity.
