'''White mulberry''' is a moderately fast-growing, deciduous shrub. It grows upto 20 - 35 metres tall. It has a fairly cylindrical, straight bole up to 50cm in diameter and free of buttresses.The tree has a wide range of uses, being valued especially for its edible fruit and medicinal uses. It is cultivated in home gardens for its edible fruit, there are a number of varieties.It is also often grown as an ornamental.

It has become widely naturalized in disturbed areas such as roadsides and the edges of tree lots, along with urban areas in much of North America, where it hybridizes readily with the locally native red mulberry (Morus rubra). There is now serious concern for the long-term genetic viability of the red mulberry because of extensive hybridization in some areas.<ref name="How to plant/cultivate"/>
