No need for pruning as its a very small whip of a tree still that has been slow growing. Sprayed with copper fungicide as it had some kind of leaf curl/spots that killed a few leafs so I think a prevantative fungicide may be a good idea. |

No fruit in the first year. Maybe better luck next year. |

Transplanted into a half wine barrel. A very large increase in container size so I limit waterings. |

Motivation for getting this tree is that true black mulberries are the sweetest and richest flavored Mulberries, but they are slower growing. I want sweet flavorful berries. |
