Growing & Maintaining Mulberry Trees in Your Landscape

The Mulberry Tree is a native deciduous tree that has leaves with serrated edges and fruits that range from dark red to white, depending on the variety.  It's an easy native that grows and thrives almost anywhere you plant it. This tree is a magnet for the flowers, which attract bees. The fruits will attract plenty of wildlife to your garden, including birds, squirrels, and other mammals.

Features & Wildlife Benefits

The Mulberry Tree has edible fruits similar in shape to blackberries or raspberries but are not sold in stores due to poor shelf life. Quickly pick the fruits of your labor and eat them! You can eat them raw or cooked.

This is a tree that is self- and wind-pollinated in addition to attracting bees, so if your property has a low population of these insects, you will still be able to have fruits.

How to Grow and Care for Fruit Trees

Fruit trees are a rewarding addition to any landscape, offering fragrant blossoms in spring and fresh, homegrown harvests in summer or fall. Popular varieties like apple, peach, pear, and plum thrive in full sun and well-drained, nutrient-rich soil. Choose trees suited to your USDA zone, and plant in early spring or fall for the best root development.

Dig a hole twice as wide as the root ball and deep enough so the root flare sits just above the soil line. Backfill with native soil, water deeply, and apply mulch around the base—keeping it a few inches from the trunk—to retain moisture and suppress weeds. Water regularly during the first growing season, especially during dry spells.

Prune annually to shape the tree, improve air circulation, and boost fruit production. Fertilize in early spring with a balanced or fruit-specific fertilizer. With proper planting, seasonal care, and a little patience, fruit trees will reward you with beauty, shade, and bountiful harvests year after year.
