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.

I was quite disappointed when it arrived. All the leaves were wilted, and the plant itself was maybe 3". Not even close to the advertised size of 6-10". I'm trying to nurse it back to health. Only time will tell if it even makes it. When purchasing a new plant, it shouldn't arrive on its last leg and you should be able to trust that the description is somewhat accurate.

I used to have a tree of mulberry (amora) in brazil, and i loved to be under just picking and eating the delicious fruits, i was so happy to find it here in the states, and this sellet sent the baby plant very well packed, it came looking healthy and bright green leaves. I 100% suggest this product to whoever is looking for amoras...

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.

The plant is smaller then what is pictured, but I live in Mississippi. It came with more then 6 leaves, was plenty green and packaged with care! Just beware, if you order and change your mind, the package label does cost $6.00 to return.

Well packet and received before due date

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.
