Morus alba x rubra 'Early Bird'

Early Bird is the earliest ripening of the all mulberry varieties!

Starting in early summer, this tree bears an abundance of sweet, dark, highly-flavored fruit, 1-1/2 inches long x 1/2 inch wide that look like elongated blackberries, and have a delicious and distinctive sweet taste. The berries start to ripen as early as June here in the Pacific Northwest, possibly earlier in warmer climates!

QUESTIONS & ANSWERS

Ask a Question

  • New tree. I planted two mulberry trees. 4 feet tall. How many years will it take to produce berries?

    They should start to produce next year if the establish well. Remember they need more water than you think they do to grow quickly.

  • I have purchased an Early Bird Mulberry tree and an Illinois Everbearing Mulberry tree. How far apart should I plant these trees from each other?

    It depends on how you manage them as they will both become quite tall and wide if they are not kept pruned down. Naturally they would need to be set on 16 foot centers, but if managed you can plant them closer together.
