Hi All

This tree has been in the ground 13months, it has been fertilised, wetta
soil, mulch but it just doesnt look as others in the neigbourhood. The
leaves are tinged with brown on the ends & it just doesnt look like I
think it should, I know its young so it has growing to do.
thanks
Sandra


The best examples of mulberry trees I have seen have done it on their own.
Meaning they have never been fertilised. I think you will find they thrive
on neglect. They have appeared to grow better on sandy soils as well, even
near the coast.

You mention weeping mulberry, I assume you mean a weeping mulberry that has
been grafted onto a tall mulberry rootstock? If this is the case it might
pay to check the graft. If it wasn't done correctly it could be a haven for
insects.

Anyways one thing to look at and another to think about.

Cheers

Richard
