M - mulberry This is an interesting fact. I believe we have a male tree since it has not had any fruit.
- Mulberry trees (Morus spp.) are a species that are gender fluid—they may first be male, then female, then change back again. You can find individual mulberry trees that are dioecious—with only male flowers or only female flowers.

O - Onion I saw a recipe to make an "Awesome Blossom" that one of our restaurants have here. I used to like to eat them but when I saw that they have 831 calories from fat, I have not had one for many years. That is just too many calories and it is not healthy even though it is a vegetable.
