Fruits prolifically, but if we like the taste of the shahtoot this one will come out. Height 2 metres Growing: In the Ground First Fruited: 1 Years from purchase in pot Sun/Shade: Full Shade Water Given in: Autumn Summer, Autumn, WinterPollination: No Pest Control: nil Was this review helpful?

Mulberry - White Shahtoot 10/10 Ru's Edible FruitsUpdate: 6098 days 18hrs Comments: - This was bought partly to replace a beautiful white cedar shade tree we removed because of its poisonous berries. Pruning is more to create a strong 'climbable' frame for the kids. Other than that, maintenance is zero. It grew like mad last wet summer, and I hesitated too long before cutting it back, but it has fruit set on every new season's shoot.
