RUTHERFORD, NSW
Dwarf Mulberry - Black

HASTINGS, VIC
Dwarf Mulberry - Black
Childhood memories from England, climbing small trees for the lushest Mulberries and going home with stained hands & faces. Have been looking for about 30 years for a dwarf plant. So happy with this that I bought 2 so have one in the ground at the front garden & one in a large pot in the back garden to see which does better! Both thriving after the first 3 months.
Sanctuary Point , NSW, Australia
Dwarf Mulberry - Black
I've had this plant (temperate zone) in a pot for a few years, it was happy. I put it in the ground earlier this year and it has thrived. In the last couple of months growth has doubled and I've had a few kilos of delicious fruit. Highly recommend.
Dwarf Mulberry - Black
Excellent addition to a small backyard food forest. Produces large amounts of fruit with little fuss. Located in Sydney, we always get 2 crops a year. Halfway through our first crop on our 3 year old tree and have picked about 15 kilos of fruit so far.

Within a very short time of arriving, my very healthy Dwarf Mulberry had fruit forming on it. Impressive !!
Dwarf Mulberry - Black
I bought this during the autumn months, so didn't expect to see any new leaves until spring time. I've put it in a big pot and it started sprouting leaves in the middle of winter and is now beginning to fruit. Amazing!
URALLA, NSW
Dwarf Mulberry - Black
Planted in temperate climate, protected from frost, in the chook yard. Looks good so far!
BALLINA, NSW
Dwarf Mulberry - Black
It is not going to grow too large for our small garden area, yet its leaves can be used by the local kids for silkworms, its seasonal changes give variety and when mature, it can provide delightful fruit.
DUBBO, NSW
Dwarf Mulberry - Black
I am in an arid/warm temperate climate(Dubbo NSW). The years I prune this tree hard are the years I get great crops. The first several years I left it. The last three years I have pruned the tree from 5/6 metres to 2.5m. It grows that much each year.
Dwarf Mulberry - Black
Looks good so far but just a weeny stick. Fingers crossed it grows :) [Daleys Note: In Winter Mulberries lose all their leaves. In spring they green up and fruit quickly]

Have had mine in a large pot and it fruits well. This year it has already fruited! The leaves came on quickly after winter then fruit and it's almost over!My question is should I prune it again after fruiting? It's only Spring!

Dwarf Mulberry - Black
Dwarf Mulberry BlackFruits continually and only leafless for a few weeks each year. Late summer fruit less luscious than earlier fruiting. Will try the coffee grounds to see if that improves the fruit. I prune it every year by a third to keep it low.
Dwarf Mulberry - Black
Im from Vic, temperate climate. I bought a dwarf black mulbery from Daley's a few years ago. Its a vigorous grower, but wouldn't produce fruit. This year it's produced two decent crops. So maybe they just take longer to feel happy in temperate regions.

Fruit are firm and quite tart in taste until completely ripe. These are NOT the sweeter more tasty variety you may have had previously. However, this variety is a prolific bearer. In Brisbane I get multiple crops each year with the main being in August...
Dwarf Mulberry - Black
This is my favourite tree in our garden. Looks nice, easy to look after, grows quick and fruits twice a year (pruning after fruiting).... the kids love eating the berries off the tree.
Dwarf Mulberry - Black
In large glazed pot for 12 months. Has fruited 3 times & about to fruit again with over 100 fruit! Prune after each crop and you get multiple harvests in a short time. Susceptible to rust - don't water foliage. I use coffee grounds as mulch; it loves it.

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 b...
