Mulberry (Pakistan)

📖 About This Plant

Mulberry Tree (Pakistan) is a spectacular fruiting tree producing the largest mulberry fruits available — individual berries reaching 3–4 inches long with an intensely sweet, winey, dark-red to purple-black flavor far superior to common mulberries. Growing vigorously in zones 7–10, Pakistan Mulberry is one of the most productive fruit trees for warm climates, yielding buckets of fruit from late spring into summer on a tree that can reach 20–30 feet if unpruned, or be maintained as a large shrub. The fruit is extraordinarily sweet with very low acidity and high juice content — exceptional fresh, in desserts, or made into preserves and wine.

🌱 Care Tips

Plant Pakistan Mulberry in full sun in deep, fertile, well-drained soil after last frost risk has passed. Space trees 20–30 feet apart if growing full-size, or 10–15 feet if managing as a large shrub through annual pruning. Water deeply and regularly during the first two growing seasons; established trees are moderately drought-tolerant. Fertilize in early spring with a balanced fruit tree fertilizer. Prune in late winter to shape and control size — Pakistan Mulberry tolerates heavy pruning well. Train on a central leader for tree form or prune to a multi-trunk vase shape for easier harvest. Net trees as fruit ripens — wildlife pressure is intense. The juice stains permanently; harvest on a dry day over a tarp or groundsheet.
