When to plant mulberry in Murray Bridge
- Plant seedlings: late Jan to late NovMurray Bridge area, semi-arid
Worked out from 30 years of climate records for Murray Bridge. Microclimates vary: frost hollows and hills run later.
A hardy, long-lived tree that crops heavily in late spring and early summer, even in tough Adelaide conditions. Black mulberry fruit is rich and juicy but stains everything, so plant away from paths and washing lines. Net or share with the birds.
