The Pakistan Mulberry Tree is a unique fruit to add to your home garden. It is often called the King of Mulberries because the fruit can reach 4 to 5 inches long.  The fruit is dark ruby red-purple with a sweet raspberry/blackberry like flavor. Pakistani mulberries are incredibly juicy and sweet.   It is known for its distinctive heart-shaped, serrated leaves and sweet, juicy mulberries.  The Pakistan mulberry tree is self-fertile.
 
The fruit is widely consumed fresh, used in traditional dishes, and made into jams and syrups. Mulberries are considered a nutritious fruit, rich in vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants.
They are known for their potential health benefits, including improved digestion, reduced cholesterol levels, and anti-inflammatory properties.
 
The Pakistan Mulberry tree grows large and vigorously. However, prune to the desired height. Due to their strong root system, mulberry trees should be planted away from buildings or pipes as they can create structural damage. These resilient trees do very well in the Arizona climate and produce an abundance of delicious fruit during the early Summer months.
 
Tips when Pruning Mulberry Trees
Trim in the Winter while dormant. Top the tips to reduce the height and encourage lower branches to grow. Remove any growth below the lowest main branches and the graft. Cut off dry twigs and growth going crossing towards the center. Do some thinning in the Summertime to direct the plant’s energy. Remove excess fruits to help remaining fruit to develop larger.
