I remember as a child my grandparents would lay blankets on the ground and then shake the tree. The mulberries would fall onto the blanket for easy harvest. Such great memories!

I know this vid is a few years old i first found it 2 years ago. there is a few mulberry trees growing wild at a disc golf course near my house so i went out and made a few cuttings and planted them in the yard per your instructions. they have flourished. I am planning to make new cuttings off of my trees this year to expand my own little food forest. Thanks for the video.
This is the best!!!! When I go to nurserys and see all mulberry trees at $30 (1 gallon size: 4-5 ft tall) i just think, "this is robbery". THANK YOU!!!!!!

I got a cutting earlier this year and all was well until it fell over and some of the soil came out of the pot so I sat it aside to be composted. I was so pleased that the day I was going to compost it I gave it a second look and it had beautiful buds just breaking out. Thanks for letting me know that this happens often.

Hey many thanks for your guidance. We broke off a branch by accident and I am grateful to find it will not go to waste. It is amazing to know it will actually grow another tree. Serendipity at its finest. Kind regards. 😀
That is awesome, they are a big part of our family history also, spending time picking and eating them together, I know exactly what you mean, very cool.
Hi, I am glad that you read and reply to my comment, and the good news is that I got one plant steam for myself. I have done exactly as you have shown in the above video and its start growing well. Now wait and watch. I am so anxious to eat the fruit. Its monsoon in India and I am sure that the plant will grow much faster now. Thanks and God Bless You All The Time........
Good man not worrying about micro creatures. Absolutely nothing wrong with that!! #80schildlikeresiliance haha. 'Jam it down' my kinda gardening!! Also honey is a great rooting hormone in my experience, pass on from a landscape gardener. Trickle a little honey on base. Works perfectly for Yukkas, Agaves etc. Florida weather bot dissimilar from Brisbane (except maybe not as moist *sorry*) Thanks from Brisbane Australia.
Hi, I grew up eating mulberries in Africa and I now live in England. A few years ago I saw a mulberry tree near where I live and I was so happy. They are in season at the moment and I'm enjoying eating them. I'm gonna try and grow my own tree. Thank you.
I was fortunate enough to have a fruiting mulberry sprout up in my yard of my own accord. My kids and my chickens love the berries. Using your technique, I plan on starting a few more trees. Thanks!
@@georgecarlin2656 Yeah, no. I had leaves but it died later. I think it had to do with pushing leaves before making roots. Now, my approach would be to dig a trench on contour, fill it with composted manure, and stick the twigs in in the winter. Maybe put some rocks on it. That way it would water itself every time it rained and hopefully be warm underneath while cold on top and push roots before leaves. But, I have had some decent succes (1/3?) with grapes and higher with hardy kiwi and goji berries (those seem unkillable) want to try that technique I described with figs - we're trying figs now.
Thanks, I would recommend spring as the best time to try cuttings. That is the natural time for the new growth to happen so the most natural time to try. Living in Toronto, you could try the Pakastani Mulberry that grows 3 inch long berries, a really cool variety that I can't grow here because it requires some cold months.
That's very cool. I have one white mulberry that I would love to reproduce using cuttings. It is a huge healthy tree. It has survived several Texas winters and keeps growing new leaves and berries every spring. - Heidi

A little side note about the silkworm thingy: they are only able to digest the leafs of the Morus alba (white mulberry) tho. If given other types of mulberry leafs they'll die after a few days/a week. Hence one of the main reasons why so many kids sadly enough see their pet caterpillars die a short time after purchasing them, while they gave them mulberry leafs as they were advised. But what almost every breeder leaves out is that the leafs have to be from the Morus alba tree, not just any mulberry tree. No idea why they won't mention it, but I think it has something to do with the money industry, as per usual. Now, with that being said: I noticed that you planted it next to your fence. It's actually a very bad idea to plant a mulberry next to structures that can not be moved. These trees grow massive roots that will destroy anything that is nearby. They are known to even destroy concrete and cement (concrete walk paths and roads simply being lifted up and cracked for example), so make sure to NOT plant them close to your house, your sewerage, swimming pool, gas pipes,.... Cheers.
Interesting video! Mulberry trees are my favorite, they grow fast, provide shade, adapt to just about any soil, need little care, and are resistent to thunderstorms and high winds. The branches whip, but will not break. I let one grow to about 8 feet, then cut the top, at the cut 3 branches grew and made the tree thicker. It's great to provide shade for the house wall from the scorching summer sun in Kentucky. One great benefit is the berries that are sweet delicious, the birds and squirrels also like them.
Thank you for this informative video. The Walgreens lot has a mulberry tree and I didn't want to steal it from them but they won't care if I take a few branches to start my own.

That's probably because the mulberries in Malaysia are Morus Alba (white mulberry). My best guess is that the mulberry tree in this video is either a M. Rubra or M. Nigra. In any case, if you're moving to NY, get the M. Nigra from a nursery - those yield the best tasting berries, almost like a blackberry. And the best thing about it is that you can grow them in the tropics like Malaysia through cuttings.

Thank you for the video. I passed by a neighbor's house today to find a beautiful fruiting mulberry. I just asked for a cutting and put it in the ground, per your directions. I hope I have the 100% success rate you have!

Thanks @Mercy Maramara! Yes, indeed! One time I ate about 4 cups of fresh fruit in one sitting and oh yes, the effects were very clear and strong. Kinda like eating a pile of prunes! :)
I have 3 maulberry trees in my back yard, many people have asked me how to grow one and I would tell them exactly what you just said and they wouldn`t believe me. Surely your video and your maulberry trees will convince them that it really is that easy :D

Wow I didn't know mulberry grows so easily! Someone just gave me a tree and it's bearing about 1 inch fruits now. How can I tell which variety I have? I sure hope it's the kind I get fruits year round. Thank you for showing us how toads cuttings. I bet it brings back nice childhood memory everytime you take a bite. :)
Wendi Phan Well, first it helps to know what color the fruit are when ripe. Also the length of the berry when ripe. The most common is the black mulberry.
Shahtoot! That's what they sell them as in Australia. They have one type with long white honey-sweet berries for sale here. The leaves are a bit more lobed like figleaves, to which they are related.

I know you like mulberries. I just discovered Cudrania tricuspidata. Which is a chinese version that has the taste of melons. AKA Melon tree. Im still trying to find a nursery that has them. But I think this would be an amazing tree for you too.
Florida is very humid and the soil is sandy. Ideal for rooting just about anything. But a very good video. I have had trouble rooting Mulberry cuttings in the past. Now I know the problem is with me not the muberry. Thanks. Just Googled Pakistani Mulberry, WOW! Thanks again.
+Larry D Yeah, I take the loose sandy soil for granted. I think the sandy soil is perfect for the everbearing mulberry. Did you grow the Pakistani? That thing is awesome.
+EatYourBackyard : if I can get a house with some acreage I will definitely try the Pakistani. I have a variegated mulberry I developed and brought a couple with me by grafting. After watching your video I tried rooting cuttings in perlite. One has rooted and is potted up and looks fine. I will no doubt do some more. Thanks for the encouraging video.
Awesome, glad to hear it. I think the tropical everbearing mulberry would do well in the wamer areas of California. Thanks for the comment! Let me know how it goes.
Thank you! My mulberry tree fell yesterday & I want another. I love it & can't wait to plant others. I'm glad that I can get branches & grow another one!!,

My Mulberry tree is about 15-20 years old. Produces lots of fruit. Whenever the birds get at the fruit, they drop the seeds all over my yard and I find seedlings popping up all over even in my garden. I'm thinking about selling Mulberry cuttings on eBay. Good easy money that way. The cuttings are free because it's my tree! :D
+Jesus is Lord I have four small 1-2 year old Mulberry trees in my yard which have seeded from my adult Mulberry tree. Note: seeds are very hard to sprout, except that the fruit is eaten by a wild bird and then dropped unto the soil through their excrement.
One of my favorites too. I’m in the SW part of the state and have the Estero Mulberry. It is from a cutting. Although unlike your variety mine goes bear during fall and winter but give great fruit up to an inch and a half long fruit.
@@EatYourBackyard Estero Giant is the same as Tice a delicious old Florida native variety with huge dinner plate size leaves and a tropical weeping look. Fruit is above average delicious. It originated in Fort Myers Fl. in a place called Tice. Also Pakistani grows fantastic here in central Florida zone 9B, I have 3 large trees.
Yeah, that is a great pick. Such a hardy tree and really produces tons of fruit year round. Also, very easy to grow from cuttings. I have some videos where I make preserves out of the fruit. Also, the leaves are edible. Another bonus.

THANK YOU! I have many on my property but none that are ever bearing! I’m excited to get one and also to begin propagating on my property line. Question. Would growing muscadine vines on a well established tree cause it harm?
Thank you, very useful video! Like you, this was my favorite tree as a child; my grandparents had a row of very tall ones, and I used to eat them right off the trees (before I knew about the bugs, lol. Now I soak them, but I did laugh at your, "and, well, I just eat those, too"). We have just bought our first house, and I knew that this method would be faster than trying to grow from seed. I'm looking forward to having my own mulberry trees! Thanks again :)
claytoaj Glad you liked it. It is such a great tree. They sure do have bugs, But I hardly notice them.. I made lots of great preserves with them in some recent videos. That was very tasty. Used lemons for pectin and loqouts for tartness.
@@EatYourBackyard Does this really work for mulberries? I tried this on cherry tree and it failed. Usually its a branch half-green half-wood. Cant believe is so easy like roses. I planted three roses from one long branch and they all sprouted.
my friend, gave me three cuttings. Two of the three, are starting have little buds. The buds, don't look like they are getting any bigger. I have them in pots. Do I need to water a lot or too much water, would be bad for them? Thank you, in advance.

Mulberries are like, my childhood fruit. There used to be one in the middle of a roundabout and we'd run through the traffic to pick them off and take them home in plastic containers.
My neighbor has a blackberry tree. i don't know if he planted it or not. It was small and I thought it was just a type of weed. This year it really grew. How does one plant a blackberry tree or even start one.

Hello EYB. Im from denmark but i have an Albanian father. In my youth when we visited Kosova i loved the mulberry tree. We used to use hours eating the mulberrys. My cousins wife then found a little sparkling and watched and nursed it for 2 years, and i took it home in Denmark. I have put it in my garden and it grows very good. Maybe next year it will give me fruits. I just would like to ask what time is best to plant the stick you are telling about in the video.? Thx a lot.
I found a tree near my childhood home where we used to have a mulberry tree. Took a cutting. Does this work well for all varieties of mulberry. I am in the Boston area.

I love mulberries! I had a small mulberry volunteer in my backyard when I bought my house in SE Wisconsin. I kept trimming off the side shoots and eventually had a nice 12' or so tall tree. The birds and I loved the berries. Then a storm blew the tree down. :-( Nome of the local nurseries had any mulberry trees, so I bought a self pollinating cherry tree, thinking the birds would like them. The only types of self pollinating cherries back then were tart varieties. The only birds that eat them are a few robins. All the other birds ignore them. None of my friends want the cherries. I can't keep up with so many cherries. They make such a mess. I want my mulberry tree back!
EatYourBackyard : Thanks for the suggestion! Back when I bought my cherry tree, there was no such thing as You Tube and most homes still did not have PCs. Such primitive times! How did we survive? I have a small backyard and would have to cut down another tree to make room. I'll wait a couple of years when I am retired and can move out of the city. The nursery where I bought my cherry tree now carries mulberry trees. Lots of really interesting cultivars being developed nowadays!
Great Video, thank just perfect as in the next few weeks going to a farm to get cuttings of mulberry, fig, cherry and apple trees this has helped a lot! Just one question though how long after you planted the cutting was it until the trees produced fruit? Thanks

How long does it take for a cutting that big to grow into a berry producing tree? Also, if you made a larger cutting, as in a thicker, larger branch, would it grow better/faster or not at all?

Great video. We have an old old black mulberry tree. I became aware of her health benefits last year. This spring I see few small seedlings near the tree. I will replant them.Do they need to be grafted to produce the fruit? If I want to do like you did, do I have to wait for the tree to have fruits to cut the brunch or it will do the same now when it is starting to have leaves after winter? Thank You... They are very good and healthy if you put them in rakia for a few weeks:)))
I have been trying to grow mulberry cuttings for sometime time now without any success. I have recently watched your video, and after taking a lot of cuttings from a friends land [ who's house was demolished after severe damage from earthquakes] I have planted out approx 12 cuttings in different places around our house. I will report back when and if I have a result.Neville, Christchurch New Zealand
curious if yours had worked neville. i have a tree, and mine did not work either. after watching some other vids, i learned. 1 put them in the shade, not the sun. 2 use a small branch (green) it may depend on what time of year and the temp. i think spring and mild temps are best. what i did that worked, was make an air-layer. i will never do cuttings again, i always had trouble with cuttings , so, recently, i air-layered 4 different trees with %100 sucsess
neville richard johnson yes, air-layering, also called marcotting is pretty simple. you have to scrape the bark off of a small segment, about 2 inches long. put some rooting powder on the scrape (some people dont believe in it, but, i think it has anti-fungals in them, so, i like them) wrap peat moss or another medium around it (ive only used peat moss) wrap it up in plastic wrap, so its water-tight then wrap in aluminum foil, some use newspaper this is just to keep the sun from drying the peat under the plastic wrap. make sure the peat is moist tape it up well. in 2-3 weeks you should have roots. put air-layer into youtube search (or , just in google) there is tons of info on it. make sure yous scape the bark off, but not too deep, as to stop the branch from getting nutrients. i make mine about 3 inches long. some people only scape 1 inch off, not sure why seems to me, 3 inches will give more roots here is one method, easy, but you have to buy the clamshell also gives you an idea of how deep to scar it mikesbackyardnursery.com/2012/05/clam-shell-air-propagator/
Is this Red Mulberry (Morus rubra)? I am growing a red mulberry tree. I got it as a tiny stick last year and it grew like 4 ft in one season lol. I’ll be keeping my eye on it and pruning it to keep it manageable for harvesting. I’m gonna try this! What varieties do you have ?
Does anyone know how long it is before any new shoots appear after the Mulberry cuttings have been planted?? I have had mine in the ground for well over two weeks now without any sign of life??

I live in NY and I have a Mulberry tree about 3' to 4' feet tall. My question is what is the best way to treat it during the different seasons. I don't have a sprinkler system. how much water does it need a week? Thanks
Hi... Thanks for starting your videos... Two quick questions... would you recommend trying to grow this cuttings in pots or containers? And... do you know of any usage for the wood from this tree?
I live in North Florida , I have a Pakistan mulberry , It is not very old ,I planted it last year ,but is growing extremely fast. Guess we will find out if it can survive a Florida summer.
it is still small ,last year it was too small this year i hope to get some. I also have a Chinese mulberry tree (che) that i planted this winter ,it just started putting on leaves and it is growing fast.
I live in north central Florida. I seem to have a microclimate here that can drop down to 8 F. for very short periods of time. but enough to kill many different plants & trees. I wonder if I could grow Pakistany mulberries like you. Problem is it's 100 F today. Hmmm... I wonder ?
my tree came out of dormancy too early ,we had a late season cold front that dropped down in the low 20s at night for two days it damaged part of the tree ,burning the new growth off. It has just started putting new growth on again and is looking good ,I just hope by the end of summer it still looks good.
Can you do this in the middle of the summer? I'm in Bosnia and we have like 30 degrees celsius here at almost average.. We have two 20 year old mulberry trees! One black and one white mulberry tree!! Thanks for the video but please answer fast 😊 Peace!!
I just started a new channel called OneStepZen, please subscribe for weekly tropical sunrise and meditation vids ua-cam.com/video/5x08RIRzZI4/v-deo.html
What part of central Florida are you in? I am in Pasco County and have five different kinds of mulberry trees on my property. In propagating from cuttings, it seems they do not like rooting hormone. The ones I just stuck in the soil grew, those with rooting hormone did not. That's anecdotal, but may be useful information, that it's not just that they don't need the rooting hormone, they may do better without it. One of mine is a Pakistani mulberry, and so far it is doing great. The others are: Shangri La (it is doing so-so, but is planted in a shady oak grove on my property so may need more light); Superberry; Black Everbearing; and Mystic Red.
The bugs are so tiny, you can barely see them. I rinse my berries several times then put them in a Mason jar and cover with water. Find another cup or container that will fit into the top opening of your Mason jar to submerge the berries under water. Let the berries sit submerged about 2 hours and the bugs drown. Rinse and they are good to eat!
I've done a lot of research on planting my own mulberry and most people say they prefer using a green part of the stem to grow from. is there any reason for this?

That's really interesting, I think I know why that happened. My guess would be that they grafted a fruitless mulberry to a fruiting mulberry root stock. If I were you, I would grow a cutting from the sucker and I bet you will have a fruiting mulberry. A cutting will produce a genetic copy of the parent. Sounds like fun to try...
I just made 4 cuttings from a local tree, I hope it works! I will let you know! By the way, the ends that I could reach (it's a big tree) had fruit on them. I took them off. Will it still work that my cutting had fruit on it? Also, there's no green part on the cutting, that's okay too?
EatYourBackyard how much should i be watering at first? i put one in the ground and a couple others in large pots with good soil about 10 days ago. i tend to over water. leaves have all fallen off, but no new growth yet. thanks for the info!
I remember as a child my grandparents would lay blankets on the ground and then shake the tree. The mulberries would fall onto the blanket for easy harvest. Such great memories!

Works perfectly for Yukkas, Agaves etc. Florida weather bot dissimilar from Brisbane (except maybe not as moist *sorry*) Thanks from Brisbane Australia.

Hi, I grew up eating mulberries in Africa and I now live in England. A few years ago I saw a mulberry tree near where I live and I was so happy. They are in season at the moment and I'm enjoying eating them. I'm gonna try and grow my own tree. Thank you.
Wow, worldwide Mulberries, I like it.
I was fortunate enough to have a fruiting mulberry sprout up in my yard of my own accord. My kids and my chickens love the berries. Using your technique, I plan on starting a few more trees. Thanks!

1) cut twig.
2) stick in ground
Can it really be this simple? I'm gonna try. I live in a temperate zone, but there's mulberry's growing around here. Gonna go take a cutting.
Ahhahahahhaha
I stuck it to the ground...
It died.
plenty of water. ,( dammit all!!)
@@georgecarlin2656 Yeah, no. I had leaves but it died later. I think it had to do with pushing leaves before making roots. Now, my approach would be to dig a trench on contour, fill it with composted manure, and stick the twigs in in the winter. Maybe put some rocks on it. That way it would water itself every time it rained and hopefully be warm underneath while cold on top and push roots before leaves. But, I have had some decent succes (1/3?) with grapes and higher with hardy kiwi and goji berries (those seem unkillable) want to try that technique I described with figs - we're trying figs now.
Thanks, I would recommend spring as the best time to try cuttings. That is the natural time for the new growth to happen so the most natural time to try. Living in Toronto, you could try the Pakastani Mulberry that grows 3 inch long berries, a really cool variety that I can't grow here because it requires some cold months.
I have 50 years old mulberry tree in my backyard...So huge...Thanks to you....I am ready to spread...
+Jenny Yu Wow, that mulberry tree is older than me!
That's very cool. I have one white mulberry that I would love to reproduce using cuttings. It is a huge healthy tree. It has survived several Texas winters and keeps growing new leaves and berries every spring.

A little side note about the silkworm thingy: they are only able to digest the leafs of the Morus alba (white mulberry) tho. If given other types of mulberry leafs they'll die after a few days/a week. Hence one of the main reasons why so many kids sadly enough see their pet caterpillars die a short time after purchasing them, while they gave them mulberry leafs as they were advised. But what almost every breeder leaves out is that the leafs have to be from the Morus alba tree, not just any mulberry tree. No idea why they won't mention it, but I think it has something to do with the money industry, as per usual.
Now, with that being said: I noticed that you planted it next to your fence. It's actually a very bad idea to plant a mulberry next to structures that can not be moved. These trees grow massive roots that will destroy anything that is nearby. They are known to even destroy concrete and cement (concrete walk paths and roads simply being lifted up and cracked for example), so make sure to NOT plant them close to your house, your sewerage, swimming pool, gas pipes,....

Interesting video! Mulberry trees are my favorite, they grow fast, provide shade, adapt to just about any soil, need little care, and are resistent to thunderstorms and high winds. The branches whip, but will not break. I let one grow to about 8 feet, then cut the top, at the cut 3 branches grew and made the tree thicker. It's great to provide shade for the house wall from the scorching summer sun in Kentucky. One great benefit is the berries that are sweet delicious, the birds and squirrels also like them.
Wally Kaspars I totally agree, they are so great in so many ways!
Thank you for this informative video. The Walgreens lot has a mulberry tree and I didn't want to steal it from them but they won't care if I take a few branches to start my own.

That's probably because the mulberries in Malaysia are Morus Alba (white mulberry). My best guess is that the mulberry tree in this video is either a M. Rubra or M. Nigra. In any case, if you're moving to NY, get the M. Nigra from a nursery - those yield the best tasting berries, almost like a blackberry. And the best thing about it is that you can grow them in the tropics like Malaysia through cuttings.

Thank you for the video. I passed by a neighbor's house today to find a beautiful fruiting mulberry. I just asked for a cutting and put it in the ground, per your directions. I hope I have the 100% success rate you have!
it's been 3 years now since your comment. how was it? was it successful? kindly please reply. thank you!! 😊
so what happened after 3 years ?

Thanks @Mercy Maramara! Yes, indeed! One time I ate about 4 cups of fresh fruit in one sitting and oh yes, the effects were very clear and strong. Kinda like eating a pile of prunes! :)
I have 3 maulberry trees in my back yard, many people have asked me how to grow one and I would tell them exactly what you just said and they wouldn`t believe me. Surely your video and your maulberry trees will convince them that it really is that easy :D

Wow I didn't know mulberry grows so easily! Someone just gave me a tree and it's bearing about 1 inch fruits now. How can I tell which variety I have? I sure hope it's the kind I get fruits year round. Thank you for showing us how toads cuttings. I bet it brings back nice childhood memory everytime you take a bite. :)
Wendi Phan Well, first it helps to know what color the fruit are when ripe. Also the length of the berry when ripe. The most common is the black mulberry.
Shahtoot! That's what they sell them as in Australia. They have one type with long white honey-sweet berries for sale here. The leaves are a bit more lobed like figleaves, to which they are related.

I know you like mulberries. I just discovered Cudrania tricuspidata. Which is a chinese version that has the taste of melons. AKA Melon tree. Im still trying to find a nursery that has them. But I think this would be an amazing tree for you too.
Binh Nguyen Wow that sounds so cool. I will try to find one. Do they grow from seeds?
Florida is very humid and the soil is sandy. Ideal for rooting just about anything. But a very good video. I have had trouble rooting Mulberry cuttings in the past. Now I know the problem is with me not the muberry. Thanks. Just Googled Pakistani Mulberry, WOW! Thanks again.
+Larry D Yeah, I take the loose sandy soil for granted. I think the sandy soil is perfect for the everbearing mulberry. Did you grow the Pakistani? That thing is awesome.
+EatYourBackyard : if I can get a house with some acreage I will definitely try the Pakistani. I have a variegated mulberry I developed and brought a couple with me by grafting. After watching your video I tried rooting cuttings in perlite. One has rooted and is potted up and looks fine. I will no doubt do some more. Thanks for the encouraging video.
nice.
Awesome, glad to hear it. I think the tropical everbearing mulberry would do well in the wamer areas of California. Thanks for the comment! Let me know how it goes.
Thank you! My mulberry tree fell yesterday & I want another. I love it & can't wait to plant others. I'm glad that I can get branches & grow another one!!,

I think early spring before the buds spout is the best time.
My Mulberry tree is about 15-20 years old. Produces lots of fruit. Whenever the birds get at the fruit, they drop the seeds all over my yard and I find seedlings popping up all over even in my garden. I'm thinking about selling Mulberry cuttings on eBay. Good easy money that way. The cuttings are free because it's my tree! :D
+Jesus is Lord I have four small 1-2 year old Mulberry trees in my yard which have seeded from my adult Mulberry tree. Note: seeds are very hard to sprout, except that the fruit is eaten by a wild bird and then dropped unto the soil through their excrement.
How big are your berries and what do they taste like ? I would buy some cuttings to diversify my mulberry population here in my 2 acre yard.

One of my favorites too. I’m in the SW part of the state and have the Estero Mulberry. It is from a cutting. Although unlike your variety mine goes bear during fall and winter but give great fruit up to an inch and a half long fruit.
Right on, Estero, interesting. I love the idea of long mulberries, I heard of Pakistani variety, is that similar?
@@EatYourBackyard Estero Giant is the same as Tice a delicious old Florida native variety with huge dinner plate size leaves and a tropical weeping look. Fruit is above average delicious. It originated in Fort Myers Fl. in a place called Tice. Also Pakistani grows fantastic here in central Florida zone 9B, I have 3 large trees.
I've seen it done with even larger branches than you used. Of course, it pays to keep things moist! Great video! ;)
thanks
So stoked for this, I just bought the everbearing black mulberry, which I've heard tasted the best.
Yeah, that is a great pick. Such a hardy tree and really produces tons
of fruit year round. Also, very easy to grow from cuttings. I have
some videos where I make preserves out of the fruit. Also, the leaves
are edible. Another bonus.
What's the use of mulberry is it good for our health?
Yes, an excellent laxative, high in anti oxidents
Thank you for the video. I have a contorted mulberry tree here in florida. I did the same thing and it does work.

I'm in Panama City FL and my Pakistani mullberry tree is doing great...even had fruit at 1 1/2 feet tall.
That is AWESOME, glad to hear it.
Thank you, very useful video! Like you, this was my favorite tree as a child; my grandparents had a row of very tall ones, and I used to eat them right off the trees (before I knew about the bugs, lol. Now I soak them, but I did laugh at your, "and, well, I just eat those, too").
We have just bought our first house, and I knew that this method would be faster than trying to grow from seed. I'm looking forward to having my own mulberry trees! Thanks again :)
claytoaj Glad you liked it. It is such a great tree. They sure do have bugs, But I hardly notice them.. I made lots of great preserves with them in some recent videos. That was very tasty. Used lemons for pectin and loqouts for tartness.
Rabbits eat the mulberry leaves too. They are very nutritious for them. Thanks for sharing.
funny bunny food.
@@EatYourBackyard Does this really work for mulberries? I tried this on cherry tree and it failed. Usually its a branch half-green half-wood.
Cant believe is so easy like roses. I planted three roses from one long branch and they all sprouted.
my friend, gave me three cuttings. Two of the three, are starting have little buds. The buds, don't look like they are getting any bigger. I have them in pots. Do I need to water a lot or too much water, would be bad for them? Thank you, in advance.

Hello EYB. Im from denmark but i have an Albanian father. In my youth when we visited Kosova i loved the mulberry tree. We used to use hours eating the mulberrys. My cousins wife then found a little sparkling and watched and nursed it for 2 years, and i took it home in Denmark. I have put it in my garden and it grows very good. Maybe next year it will give me fruits. I just would like to ask what time is best to plant the stick you are telling about in the video.? Thx a lot.
please subscribe to my new channel, it is unique ua-cam.com/video/7blxd4ImphU/v-deo.html

Should I place it in sunlight and how often should I water it?
Yes, it loves full sun, but can handle a little less. It like moderate watering.
@@EatYourBackyard the last one that I put in the sun died. Local florist told me to keep it in shade took the roots form. What's your take on this?

I love mulberries! I had a small mulberry volunteer in my backyard when I bought my house in SE Wisconsin. I kept trimming off the side shoots and eventually had a nice 12' or so tall tree. The birds and I loved the berries. Then a storm blew the tree down. :-( Nome of the local nurseries had any mulberry trees, so I bought a self pollinating cherry tree, thinking the birds would like them. The only types of self pollinating cherries back then were tart varieties. The only birds that eat them are a few robins. All the other birds ignore them. None of my friends want the cherries. I can't keep up with so many cherries. They make such a mess. I want my mulberry tree back!
Agent Fungus I am sure you can buy one on the internet.
EatYourBackyard : Thanks for the suggestion! Back when I bought my cherry tree, there was no such thing as You Tube and most homes still did not have PCs. Such primitive times! How did we survive?
I have a small backyard and would have to cut down another tree to make room. I'll wait a couple of years when I am retired and can move out of the city.
The nursery where I bought my cherry tree now carries mulberry trees. Lots of really interesting cultivars being developed nowadays!
Great Video, thank just perfect as in the next few weeks going to a farm to get cuttings of mulberry, fig, cherry and apple trees this has helped a lot! Just one question though how long after you planted the cutting was it until the trees produced fruit? Thanks

Great video. We have an old old black mulberry tree. I became aware of her health benefits last year. This spring I see few small seedlings near the tree. I will replant them.Do they need to be grafted to produce the fruit? If I want to do like you did, do I have to wait for the tree to have fruits to cut the brunch or it will do the same now when it is starting to have leaves after winter? Thank You... They are very good and healthy if you put them in rakia for a few weeks:)))
Andreja J Take the cuttings in the spring and they do not need to be grafted. Thanks for the extra info.
I have been trying to grow mulberry cuttings for sometime time now without any success. I have recently watched your video, and after taking a lot of cuttings from a friends land [ who's house was demolished after severe damage from earthquakes]
I have planted out approx 12 cuttings in different places around our house.
I will report back when and if I have a result.Neville, Christchurch New Zealand
curious if yours had worked neville.
i have a tree, and mine did not work either.
after watching some other vids, i learned.
1 put them in the shade, not the sun.
2 use a small branch (green)
it may depend on what time of year and the temp.
i think spring and mild temps are best.
what i did that worked, was make an air-layer.
i will never do cuttings again, i always had trouble with cuttings
, so, recently, i air-layered 4 different trees with %100 sucsess
brad mayeux Hi Brad, can you explain what you mean by air layering,
neville richard johnson
yes, air-layering, also called marcotting is pretty simple.
you have to scrape the bark off of a small segment, about 2 inches long.
put some rooting powder on the scrape
(some people dont believe in it, but, i think it has anti-fungals in them, so, i like them)
wrap peat moss or another medium around it
(ive only used peat moss)
wrap it up in plastic wrap, so its water-tight
then wrap in aluminum foil, some use newspaper
this is just to keep the sun from drying the peat under the plastic wrap.
make sure the peat is moist
tape it up well.
in 2-3 weeks you should have roots.
put air-layer into youtube search (or , just in google)
there is tons of info on it.
make sure yous scape the bark off, but not too deep,
as to stop the branch from getting nutrients.
i make mine about 3 inches long.
some people only scape 1 inch off, not sure why
seems to me, 3 inches will give more roots
here is one method, easy, but you have to buy the clamshell
also gives you an idea of how deep to scar it
mikesbackyardnursery.com/2012/05/clam-shell-air-propagator/
brad mayeux Many thanks for that, I will go get some more cuttings in a few weeks as the weather warms up again here, and try this method.
Mulberries just like a Fig Tree, likes to be lose to the house or against a wall.
Is your mulberry tree in the uk and does it die in the winter?
There are many cold hardy varieties of mulberry.
Is this Red Mulberry (Morus rubra)? I am growing a red mulberry tree. I got it as a tiny stick last year and it grew like 4 ft in one season lol. I’ll be keeping my eye on it and pruning it to keep it manageable for harvesting. I’m gonna try this! What varieties do you have ?
No, this is an "everbearing mulberry" Dwarf Everbearing Mulberry Plant - Morus nigra - Sweet Fruit - 4" Pot amzn.to/34uVrqj
Can you use a larger branch as to have a bigger tree? Say 6ft long?
yes you can! Check out my recent vids, subscribe and join our daily live streams! ua-cam.com/video/9qCs8iuW630/v-deo.html

I live in NY and I have a Mulberry tree about 3' to 4' feet tall. My question is what is the best way to treat it during the different seasons. I don't have a sprinkler system. how much water does it need a week? Thanks
I would just let it go dormant. Maybe take some cuttings inside just in case.
Will this work even if you're planting in the Summer?
Well, need to stay up on the watering so it doesnt dry out, that would be the big thing to watch
Hi... Thanks for starting your videos... Two quick questions... would you recommend trying to grow this cuttings in pots or containers? And... do you know of any usage for the wood from this tree?
Grow a cactus cutting, easy, fun. Yes, it woudl make great firewood dried out but burn fast.
I live in North Florida , I have a Pakistan mulberry , It is not very old ,I planted it last year ,but is growing extremely fast. Guess we will find out if it can survive a Florida summer.
Does it fruit well?
it is still small ,last year it was too small this year i hope to get some. I also have a Chinese mulberry tree (che) that i planted this winter ,it just started putting on leaves and it is growing fast.
I live in north central Florida. I seem to have a microclimate here that can drop down to 8 F. for very short periods of time. but enough to kill many different plants & trees. I wonder if I could grow Pakistany mulberries like you. Problem is it's 100 F today. Hmmm... I wonder ?
my tree came out of dormancy too early ,we had a late season cold front that dropped down in the low 20s at night for two days it damaged part of the tree ,burning the new growth off. It has just started putting new growth on again and is looking good ,I just hope by the end of summer it still looks good.
Can you do this in the middle of the summer? I'm in Bosnia and we have like 30 degrees celsius here at almost average.. We have two 20 year old mulberry trees! One black and one white mulberry tree!! Thanks for the video but please answer fast 😊 Peace!!
Purhiman1 Yes, but make sure you keep the soil wet or it will likely not make it.
Great work & thumbs up from a Pakistani.
Thanks, home of the Pakistan Mulberry, a crowd favorite!
@@EatYourBackyard you are welcome. Glad that you like to care for fruit plants.
Hi, would it be possible to grow them in a container?
I think so, that's a great idea.
Does the season matter when to take the cuttings?
Guess so, i believe it must be spring but depends on the area. If its a colder area you can do it in summer. You gotta water it a lot though.
Yes, spring. Please Subscribe to my new meditation channel, Tropical Drone Sunrises, ua-cam.com/video/Wi0mp6GHQPY/v-deo.html

What part of central Florida are you in? I am in Pasco County and have five different kinds of mulberry trees on my property. In propagating from cuttings, it seems they do not like rooting hormone. The ones I just stuck in the soil grew, those with rooting hormone did not. That's anecdotal, but may be useful information, that it's not just that they don't need the rooting hormone, they may do better without it. One of mine is a Pakistani mulberry, and so far it is doing great. The others are: Shangri La (it is doing so-so, but is planted in a shady oak grove on my property so may need more light); Superberry; Black Everbearing; and Mystic Red.
BRevard.
At 2:50 he finally says cut a branch and then stick it in ground, keep moist.
Worth the wait? hehe...
What kind of bug is in the berry?
A tiny bug that tastes like chicken.. Hehe, not sure the name. really tiny.
The bugs are so tiny, you can barely see them. I rinse my berries several times then put them in a Mason jar and cover with water. Find another cup or container that will fit into the top opening of your Mason jar to submerge the berries under water. Let the berries sit submerged about 2 hours and the bugs drown. Rinse and they are good to eat!
I've done a lot of research on planting my own mulberry and most people say they prefer using a green part of the stem to grow from. is there any reason for this?
+Sunette Colditz I am not sure why, I always use the woody part since the green part seems more likely to dry out.
Thanks for the video, How many years (approx.) before the new tree starts giving fruits?

How large a branch/cutting could one use?
I would go with a 12 inch cutting
Also, it is an extremely attractive plant.

That's really interesting, I think I know why that happened. My guess would be that they grafted a fruitless mulberry to a fruiting mulberry root stock. If I were you, I would grow a cutting from the sucker and I bet you will have a fruiting mulberry. A cutting will produce a genetic copy of the parent. Sounds like fun to try...
Wow, you don't have to root it in water 1st? I got a clipping and put it in water a week ago - can I still stick it in the ground?

I just made 4 cuttings from a local tree, I hope it works! I will let you know! By the way, the ends that I could reach (it's a big tree) had fruit on them. I took them off. Will it still work that my cutting had fruit on it? Also, there's no green part on the cutting, that's okay too?
+mooshgigila I think it will work with the green part. How did it go?
going to try this - how far do you shove it into the ground?
snofagun1814 My method is to place it about 12 inches deep at least.
EatYourBackyard how much should i be watering at first? i put one in the ground and a couple others in large pots with good soil about 10 days ago. i tend to over water. leaves have all fallen off, but no new growth yet. thanks for the info!

I would keep it constantly wet as long as the temperature is hot like it is here in florida. It is like growing trees in an oven on low!
