On the way to my daughter's school, we walk under a maulberry tree hanging over a fence... We love *him very much and during this time of the year, if we are not in a hurry, we help *him to relieve himself, picking a couple of the ripe (delicious) berries...

*Mulberry tree... misspelled/Germanized because I am used to the German word for it, which is very similar: Maulbeerbaum

Anyhow, Mulberry & Maulbeer are close cousins, since they both come from the Latin ‘morum’, while the Latin descends probably from Greek 'moron' (mulberry), which comes from Proto-Indo-European *moro-, source also of Armenian 'mor' (blackberry) and Welsh 'merwydden' (mulberry)

E' vero, sono buonissime! Ne ho fatto una scorpacciata una decina di giorni fa, alleggerendo un gelso vicino ad una spiaggetta sul Ticino, in zona Vecchia Dogana...
