Companion Plants Bundle: 'Pakistan' Mulberry and Jamun

A Deep-Rooted Love Story

Like the best partnerships, 'Pakistan' Mulberry and Jamun grow stronger together. Both are hardy, long-lived fruit trees that thrive in warm climates, with deep roots that help stabilize soil and improve nutrient cycling. When planted as companions, they create a supportive microclimate—offering shared shade, moisture balance, and resilience against stress.

Their pairing brings beauty and bounty across seasons: mulberry’s sweet, early harvest followed by jamun’s rich, jewel-toned fruits later in the year. Together, they attract birds, pollinators, and admiration—proof that some relationships are built to last for generations.

A perfect Valentine’s match for gardeners who believe love should be fruitful, enduring, and a little bit wild.
