My Edible Fruit Trees: Dwarf Mulberry Trees QLD

dwarf mulberry (Grafted) ^10/10

Comments: -

This tree has just flourished and the fruit is yummo! Have had no problems with it despite it being in a north/west facing aspect and dealing with wind. Hoping to have a windbreak by way of passionfruit all along the back fence but the Mluberry doesn't seem to care anywhere. She is lush, tall and I love her :) It is only 2 metres from the septic tank and I thought it being a dwarf it would be ok - but perhaps not. May have to move her...

What a wonderful little tree.  Fruited from the first season and hasn't looked back - just keeps on giving.

Have just been given some chooks so I'm sure the mulberry tree are going to enjoy sharing its spot with them.

Cut it back a little late but even so covered in fruit.  It is in the chook pen now so should get lots of nitrogen from now on.

Even the 'dwarf' has a tendency to shoot for the sky. After fruiting it is essential to cut right back. The tree always responds during spring and early summer with another load of fruit!

Lovely little tree this, unfortunately the fruit fly are attacking it.

UNBELIEVABLE crop this spring (2012) no special treatment but I did cut back quite hard in winter.

trying to keep on top of the fruit fly, it's not practical to cover the tree so am alternating weekly sprays of naturalure & another one, and picking up fallen fruit. Seems only moderately successful.
