Growing the Mulberry Tree - Spring Tree Shaping and Trimming for Maximum Fruit!
Tips, Tricks
In this video I show you what ever bearing mulberry trees look like in Late January. Lots of fruit and young, new leaves in full bloom. Also, I share my methods for how to shape and prune the trees to produce easy to pick fruit without needing ladders. Check out my other mulberry tree videos to see how to grow these trees from cuttings. You can have an fruit grove in no time.

i got some cuttings 2yrs ago from someone in Fla
they said it was an "Everbearing" tree.
Last spring i had some nice tasting fruit. they were not huge,
but, healthy and tasted good.
They stopped producing until fall/winter.
now i am getting just a few fruit from each tree
and they are small and shriveled up.
i doubt it is my soil.
i grow papaya, guava, citrus, loquat, and a ton of other fruits
my local red mulberry fruits great in the spring too.
im wondering iof you know what might be the cause
or, if you know a variety of everbearing that has good fall fruit ?
By the way, i have a Pakastani i bought recently, its already 10ft tall,
though still young and only 2-3 side shoots.
i just topped it again... LOL they grow like weeds here in New Orleans...
,
and i also am growing cuttings from a tree i found a mile from here
that has huge very sweet and very flavorful fruit.
i cant wait till i get some
i just wish i could get fruit besides just springtime. -
I live in zone 4-5 and am wondering how and when I should prune my 2 year old mulberry? spring usually not recommended for fruit in our area so should I prune in fall?

I am planting the Hicks fancy variety in my yard tomorrow. Great video, thank you for taking the time to post.

Hello, we live in Ft. Myers, SW Florida & have an Everbearing Mulberry Tree which is cascading beautiful, but we have the 1 main branch that is very long & also cascading. Can we cut that in 2 - 12 in sections & root tone it... We are afraid to cut that main branch & shock the tree, as now it is fruiting beautifully on it's 2nd year. Thank you....

I'm planning to cut back my mulberry tree up to 4 to 5 ft tall, I've purchased it 2 years ago as a seedling and it has been growing fast that I couldn't reach its fruit.. but I'm afraid that it might go to shock and die...

They call that "Supercropping" in "alternative herb growing" circles. :)

Another video! Thanks so much for all the updates. Looks like I'm going to need to find an ever bearing mulberry tree now.. LOL. Hopefully I'll run into some at the next local annual fruit tree sale. Seeing what you have created is really keeping me inspired to keep expanding. I've never had mulberries before, but I'm sure they are delicious. I just ate my 1st Papaya from my tree, and it was delicious... Really cant say thanks enough for your time & effort. Can't wait to see what you'll share with us next
