Unryu Mulberry: November 2024 maintenance

How’s that mulberry going? Well…

Yeah, those leaves are going to be an issue. I really should learn not to buy trees without seeing their leaves.
Unryu Mulberry: November 2024 maintenance
I pruned it back, and turned it around, hoping to get some lower growth. The new green branches aren’t giving me much optimism about getting movement without intervention.

But wasn’t there some cuttings? *sigh* Well, let’s get this over with.

In early August I cut back a lot and stuck some into a large pot, because cuttings are deeply confusing to me.

Three weeks later, some buds were still green:

Yup, that’s green…
Must be getting some water.
Well, not this one, which I stuck in upside down.

One cutting kept that green for a while, but two months later, nothing:

No more green.
No roots ever grew.

Maybe I let it get too dry in the period? It was in full sun, so that could be easily done.

Someone knows this stuff. But it isn’t me.

Still can’t believe I put one in upside down.
