Should I prune?

Mulberry tree was small and against the house, so I moved it to the front of the house. It has exploded in growth in the last few months. Should I prune it to control the growth.

Morus Alba marketed as Morus Rubra

Has anyone else experienced buying a “red mulberry” on ebay only for it to be a white mulberry? Once it started growing, the hairs on the face of the leaf disappeared and the lobes turned round. I messaged, reported, and left a bad review of the seller and they refunded me without saying anything. I felt bad destroying it but there are currently very little, if any, mulberry trees in my county and I certainly don’t want it to be populated with white mulberry as opposed to the native Morus Rubra.

I'm pretty happy with how this turned out, considering my German shepherd ate the one I made last night.

Filling is wild mulberries, sugar, corn starch, and lemon juice. Pre-made pie crust by the Mennonite girl down the street. And the topping is a vanilla-almond granola with an egg wash provided by my chickens.

Should we prune? Where/how?

Dwarf everbearing mulberry tree growing in zone 9b, Florida in loamy soil with 30% shade cloth. This tree keeps on growing and is almost 5 feet at its tallest growth. Would you recommend pruning or let it grow? I’ve read pruning down will help it grow in more robust but I want to make sure pruning, especially going into summer, won’t be a problem.

If we do prune, any advice on how to? A certain angle or how far down? Signs to look for? Thanks!

Came in a fig tree box, but the fig sub is telling me it's not even a fig tree. Someone said it could be a mulberry tree. If it's not a fruit-bearing tree, I'm going to rip it out.

Growing in zone 9B, Florida. Currently under 30% shade cloth. Plant ID says leaves are yellowing due to being too tall too fast, and needs to be pruned down some. It’s about four feet tall. How far down would you prune? Any certain branches that need to go? Any like tips/best practices?

When will I know when the berries are ripe

I just moved onto this property and inherited the care of this established tree. I have no experience with Mulberries, but I am interested in harvesting a share of the berries. They are getting progressively more purple but the ground is already covered with light purple/whiteish berries. I tried a more purple one and it was very light in flavor and floral. Are they already ready, or do they need to darken more?

Any tips for caring for this tree would be appreciated as well.

Mulberry tree browning and yellowing leaves, help

Post image
1 Upvotes

Hi! I purchased this young mulberry tree about a month ago. It looked healthy and I repotted it. I used Sta Green flower and vegetable garden soil and have been watering it every few days when the top 2 inches feel dry. It’s on an east facing balcony where it gets about 4 or 5 hours of full sun right now.

I’m concerned about my plant as it’s dropping leaves and yellowing. Some of the leaves have brown around the edges. I don’t think it’s seasonal because it’s not the whole plant yellowing and I live in central Florida where temperatures are mild. Could it be overwatering, under watering or something else? Maybe the soil I used is wrong?

Why are some of my mulberries deformed?

Some of my berries are forming weird. The bottom portion of the berry seems to separate and ripen separately.

I was sold a male tree that i planted 800 ft away indirectly.

In everyone's experience, how long does it take for their American Mulberry trees to fruit? I've got two that have exploded in growth and honestly it's the best tree growing experience I've had compared to my Pawpaws, figs, and persimmons.

When to plant

It’s 95 or so lately in zone 7b. I have a mulberry tree (dwarf ever bearing) that is in a 17-20gal container and I’d like to plan it in the yard. Any suggestions on when and how to do so? I don’t want to shock it and want to pick a good location in the yard. Thanks

I remember reading the leaves are good for you would it be worth it to harvest all these?
