Origin
The white mulberry is native to eastern and central China. It became naturalized in Europe centuries ago. The tree was introduced into America for silkworm culture in early colonial times and naturalized and hybridized with the native red mulberry. The red or American mulberry is native to eastern United States from Massachusetts to Kansas and down to the Gulf coast. The black mulberry is native to western Asia and has been grown for its fruits in Europe since before Roman times.

Fruit
Botanically the fruit is not a berry but a collective fruit, in appearance like a swollen loganberry. When the flowers are pollinated, they and their fleshy bases begin to swell.

Soil and Irrigation
Soil : Mulberries like a warm, well-drained soil, preferably a deep loam. Shallow soils such as those frequently found on chalk or gravel are not recommended,and pH 5.5_6.5 .
Irrigation : Although somewhat drought-resistant, mulberries need to be watered in dry seasons. If the roots become too dry during drought, the fruit is likely to drop before it has fully ripened.

Fertilization
Mulberries generally thrive with minimal fertilization. An annual application of a balanced fertilizer such as 10:10:10 NPK will maintain satisfactory growth. In California mulberries usually need only nitrogen.

Location
Mulberries need full sun and also adequate space. The distance between trees should be at least 15 ft. The trees should not be planted near a sidewalk. The fallen fruit will not only stain the walkway, but are likely to be tracked indoors. The trees are quite wind-resistant with some cultivars used as windbreaks in the Great Plains region.

Pruning
No special pruning techniques are needed after the branches have been
trained to a sturdy framework, except to remove dead or overcrowded wood. A
mulberry tree can be kept to a tidy form by developing a set of main branches,
and then pruning laterals to 6 leaves in July in order to develop spurs near the
main branches. It is not advisable to prune the trees heavily since the plant is
inclined to bleed at the cuts. Cuts of more than two inches in diameter generally
do not heal and should be avoided at all cost. The bleeding will be less severe if
the tree is pruned while it is dormant.

Propagation
There are several methods of propagating mulberry including budding (chip and T-budding),grafting .
Mulberries can be grown from seed, although the plants can take 10 years or more to bear. Seed should be sown as soon as extracted from the fruit, although white mulberry seeds germinate better after stratifying one to three months before planting.

Harvest
White and red mulberry fruits (and hybrid fruits) are
ready for harvest in late spring. The fruit of black
mulberries ripen in summer to late summer.
