Funny… I was just thinking of asking you a question about mulberry pruning as I walked through my gardens this morning.
Here is my question: I live close to Daytona Beach– 20 miles inland… and though we had a brutal winter… it has warmed up for the past few weeks and the mulberry trees are full of leaves and flowers now. Have I lost my window for pruning? I have 3 extra large trees and one fairly large… one that you sold me.
Also, I tried grafting for the first time about a week ago. I grafted peaches onto chicksaw plum. Not real hopeful they will take…. I thought about doing some more but now both have flowers and leaves… is it to late to do more grafting?
thanks,
Keith

Can I take a branch from a mulberry tree and start a new tree? A friend of mine has a beautiful tree but they don’t understand what a great fruit it is and they never pick the fruit. I want one, I love their fruit.
