While other trees wilt in the August heat, Mulberries thrive. They handle our clay soil and "rollercoaster" winters with ease.
One mature tree can produce up to 30 lbs of fruit. That's enough for pies, jams, wine, and healthy snacks for the whole neighborhood.
This isn't a short-term shrub. A mulberry planted today will still be providing shade and fruit for your great-grandchildren in 2126.
"In North Texas, we don't have time for 'diva' plants. We need survivors. The Mulberry is the ultimate 'Plant-and-Forget' tree. It wakes up early in the spring, ignores the July drought, and offers up a harvest so bountiful you'll need bigger baskets."

Buy NowSlide to watch your legacy grow from a sapling to a massive canopy.
Congratulations! You've just planted a 100-year legacy. In North Texas, the first year isn't about fruit—it's about foundations. Follow this guide to turn your sapling into a backyard titan.
Dig a hole twice as wide as the root ball, but no deeper. Water it in well to remove air pockets.
This is the make-or-break season. Water deeply 2–3 times a week. Don't just sprinkle the leaves; soak the root zone.
As the heat breaks, the roots go into overdrive. Add a fresh 3-inch layer of mulch, but keep it away from the trunk (no "mulch volcanoes").
Your tree is dormant. Only prune dead or crossing branches. Let it rest—it's preparing for a massive spring "push."
Everything you need to know about growing Mulberry trees in North Texas.
Yes, mulberry trees are extremely durable and thrive in North Texas. They handle the "Blackland Grease" heavy clay soil and both the extreme summer heat and winter ice storms with ease, requiring minimal maintenance after the first year.
The Dwarf Everbearing Mulberry typically grows between 6-10 feet tall, making it perfect for smaller suburban lots. It can also be easily kept smaller with light pruning or even grown in large 15-20 gallon glazed pots on patios.
Dark mulberries can stain concrete. It is recommended to plant them at least 15 feet away from driveways and sidewalks so the berries fall on the grass instead—a practice we call respecting the "Splatter Zone." Alternatively, you can choose a White Honey mulberry variety which does not stain.
You might get a handful of berries in Year One, but we actually recommend pinching them off! By removing the fruit in the first year, you force the tree to put all that energy into establishing its root system for the harsh Texas summer.
