Ideal for back yards and we consider it a must have fruit tree for the back yard. The best way to eat mulberries is fresh from the tree.

Coffee - Blue Mountain Kenya
$17.75 ($4.90-$18.75 choose a size)
The Blue Mountain Kenya coffee is one of the highest rated coffee varieties in the world with an outstanding balance of flavour, body and aroma. An excellent garden variety similar to K7 in growth, with a less dense habit. When grown in acidic soil this characteristic will transfer to a sweet and tart flavor in the beans. Blue Mountain Kenya matures a little earlier than K7 and does not crop as heavily because of its more open branching.Both varieties have bronze colored new tip growth which becomes green as the leaves mature.
