A Sweet Southern Treat
(Morus rubra x Morus alba)
Discovered growing wild in Georgia and introduced by Robert Hamilton, “Miss Kim” is highly regarded for its complex, sweet flavor and size. Bears fruit mid-season over a shorter period of time, meaning the crop ripens more uniformly, allowing for larger harvests at one time. Does especially well in the South, showing resistance to popcorn disease.
