Illinois Everbearing Mulberry Tree 6-10" Tall, Sweet Fruit to Enjoy Year After Year, Fruit Bearing Potted Plant

My little mulberry tree arrived well-packaged in 4 days. It is healthy and has several green leaves. It is about 6 inches tall. I potted it in a 9-inch pot and have it outside under a 70% shade cloth. It is tolerating sunny, 70-degree days and 40-degree nights. My only concern is that its trunk is very slender and our wind can start whipping it around, so I have protected it from the wind with several boards. I read that a certain amount of wind is good because it helps the tree to become stronger. I hope it will grow 2-3 feet per year, because it looks so tiny and frail at this point.

Well it took a week to arrive. Then left in our medal mailbox instead of delivered to my door on a 95° day. Who knows how hot it was in that mailbox. It was there at least a couple hours before I checked to see when it was delivered. 🤯 It's alive but very wilted. Gave it a cool soak in water. Before planting it in a suitable pot. It will be in a Shady window inside to recover. 😬🤞 She's small but hopefully mighty ❤️‍🩹 One week later, she's dying. Not exceptable. Way to small to ship. I will now have to replace it somewhere else with a more established plant. The sellers disclosure said they are only responsible if dead on arrival. I suspect they already know it's way to small to ship. It's always a gamble ordering online. You can't see what your really paying for.

Pleasantly surprised on how well the mulberry tree was when it arrived. It was just coming out of dormancy and care was taken to prevent it from being damaged when shipped. I received it in a week compared to over a month with Stark Bros. Will purchase from them again.

received an 18 in. stick with a few leaves. well packaged and moist. I put it straight in the ground in a full sun spot. I did put a wire around it and covered with 40 percent shade cloth for several days. It has grown several inches in a couple weeks and looks strong so far. Will probably purchase another soon.

I’m pleased with this purchase. It was small when I got it but I’ve kept it on my kitchen counter and have been watering it every day to every other day for the last couple weeks and it’s growing nicely. Almost big enough for me to put it outside. It has beautiful leaves and it’s healthy. Thank you

Great mulberry tree thank you!

The plant arrived leafless and folded in half to be shoved into the box. The leaflessness was expected for it being in the late winter, however I planted it in a pot and kept it in an area where it would have afternoon shade. I was diligent in watering and keeping an eye on it, however it never emerged from dormancy and has become a brittle stick. The roots looked developed and strong when I moved it into a larger pot after I received it. I suspect the packing job was the culprit. I reached out to the seller and received a copy/paste response about fruit tree husbandry, which did not address my questions at all.

It’s very small little plant. Does show it’s growing and alive. However it came in two boxes crammed together taped in the middle with only one bamboo stick with the plant. So it’s broken in the middle of the small plant. I have it braced so maybe it will grow back? A wide flat floppy set of boxes taped end to end is not the best option for shipping. This plant was on sale so if it makes it ok if not I’ll try somewhere else to buy one. It was shipped fast and delivered fast. I planted it in the pot for now as soon as I got it. So… the plant could be an older and larger one to start with, and they really need to be much better at packaging for shipping.
