i got a persian mulberry and sweet pomegranate about a month ago. just wondering if anyone has grown these before or tasted the fruits from these particular species. mulberries are my favorite berry, if u never had one its like a blackberry but much more mild and sweet. most people become addicted from the first bite. ill post pics as they grow, the mulberry should fruit from june to august. mmmmmmmm i cant wait..

ive got all kinds of plants. that cactus is my prized san pedro, just filling with mescaline by the day. gonna wait till it grows big enough so i can get a huge piece off it and extract the mescaline so me and some close friends can have a little trip party.

i thought this pic is cool... a pineapple just starting to pop out. they take sooo long to fruit, about 2 years.

Ya ive seen the method I just dont think I have the patience to tend to a plant for 2 years (nor the climate)

yea they take a damm long time, over 2 years. they really dont require much care, but you would have to be in the right climate.
