Oscar Mulberry (spring delivery)

Oscar Mulberry is a dual purpose variety offering early fruit & nutritious leaf fodder. Fruits are fantastic,  better tasting even than Illinois Everbearing and slightly tart. Oscar mulberries tested 11.9% protein in our tests. Although mulberry leaves have different shapes on the same tree, Oscar mulberry leaves have distinctive three-lobe leaves. Standard sized tree topping out at about 35-40′. Bare root trees 6-8′. Zones 5-9.

Unlike most other mulberry trees for sale, our mulberries are grown from tissue culture. We have selected clonal propagation from tissue culture over grafting because it offers a superior product. As a complete clone, the entire plant has the same genetics. With a grafted tree the top is different from the rootstock (also called understock) that it is grafted on. If the tree dies back below the graft, through delayed graft incompatibility, livestock damage, a brush hog or some other cause, what you’re left with is an expensive generic seedling. With a complete clone from tissue culture, the entire plant has the right genetics. Also, the benefit of clonal propagation over seedling propagation is that we know all of our trees will yield fruit, and we know what qualities they will have.

Shipping: This product will ship out in March or early April as a bare root tree depending on your region.  If you want to plant earlier and your ground is not yet frozen by early December, consider a fall shipment.  Although these trees are 7′ or taller, we will head these trees to just under 6′ for shipping since shipping boxes longer than 6’ becomes much more expensive. Trees picked up will not be topped but remain at full height.

*Restricted and not available for shipment to Wisconsin.
