Dwarf Mulberry - Black (Grafted) 5/10Itdepends1's Edible FruitsUpdate: 5785 days 8hrs Comments: - Purchased this in 2008 as I enjoy mullberries but don't have the room left in the yard for a full sized tree. Growing this in half a wine barrel will keep the tree dwarfed and I'll still get a "taste" of fruit off it. Reasonably heavily pruned due to being in pot. Grows faster than the Black English and isn't as suitable for pot culture in my opinion 2010- I've revised my opinion of this- the vigorous growth means heaps of mulberries off the new growth. Pruned this in late summer when I repotted it into a larger pot (note to self- termites love half wine barrels left in damp gardens). Got an early autumn crop of mulberries from the new growth!! Planted: 2008 Height 2 metres Qty: 1 First Fruited: 3 Months from Purchase in Pot Sun/Shade: Full Sun Pruned By: 50% in Spring Pollination: Self Pollination Fertiliser or Organics Used: Slow release When I Fertilise: Spring Was this review helpful?

Dwarf Mulberry - Black (Grafted) 1/10Jema's Edible FruitsUpdate: 6241 days 12hrs Comments: - I believe the mulberry died because I didn't account for climate differences between Northern NSW and Southern WA. I recieved it in winter and planted it in a very exposed spot. Although in dormancy when I recieved it I know it was alive, it just didn't resprout in spring. I think I should have let it adjust to cooler weather somewhere protected from winter storms! Was this review helpful? Yes | No | Report 5 of 8 people found this review useful |

Mulberry - Black English 8/10 Amanda's Edible FruitsUpdate: 2685 days 19hrs Comments: - Was planted by previous owners. A gnarly looking tree that fruits well.

Mulberry - Black English (Cutting) 8/10Pat1's Edible FruitsUpdate: 4743 days 6hrs Comments: - I have no idea what variety of black mulberry I have but they are absolutely massive and I have never seen any bigger. Mine was grown from a cutting given by a friend. I hack the tree back every year after fruiting and bend down all the fruiting wood in winter to keep it at picking level. They are so yummy when cooked and juiced. So low maintenance and prolific!

Mulberry - Black English 9/10Caledapho's Edible FruitsUpdate: 5283 days 6hrs Comments: - Our tree is huge and graceful. Its beautiful to look at and beautiful to eat.We prune off the dead canes from the inside each year, and its about 3m2 inside now. My kids use it for a cubby house:)The fruit ripens in waves; raining berries for about 3 days, then next to none for the next 3-5 days. While the berries are falling, we put a sheet under the tree, and the first ones dont have time to spoil before the berry shower ends.Apart from fresh handfuls straight off the tree, we like to blend the berries with a little sugar and pour over vanilla ice-cream. A favourite summer treat!

Growing this in half a wine barrel will keep the tree dwarfed and I'll still get a "taste" of fruit off it. Reasonably heavily pruned due to being in pot Update 2012 the Black English has been planted in the ground- replacing my dwarf red shatoot as it tastes much better than the dwarf red (they are too sweet for me) and it's an excellent flavour. Doesn't fruit as heavily as my seedling mulberry but tastes better.
