Product description
Mulberry Milanowek (Morus Alba) is a beautifully productive variety that brings a touch of elegance and abundance to the garden. Its naturally upright, bushy, well balanced shape makes it an attractive feature through the growing season, with fresh green foliage in spring followed by long, sweet mulberries that ripen through summer. This variety is known for its excellent flavour and reliable cropping, offering a generous harvest on a plant that is easy and rewarding to manage.
Caring for Milanowek is pleasantly straightforward. Plant it in a sunny or lightly shaded spot with well drained soil, and water regularly during its first season to help it establish strong roots. Once settled, it becomes a low maintenance companion, needing only light pruning in winter to maintain its shape and encourage healthy new growth. A yearly mulch in spring and an occasional feed will keep it vigorous and productive, ensuring a generous harvest for years to come.
Please Note: When purchasing plants, please consider that each live item is unique and may therefore differ from the images shown, which are for illustration purposes only. The plant will be supplied in a growers pot. Depending on season, some plants may be pruned back to encourage growth and deciduous plants may arrive without leaves.

Garden Plant Size Guide
Plants in larger pots can be multiple years older than their smaller counterparts with more mature root systems and foliage. This makes them able to thrive as a full size plant in your garden quicker than smaller alternatives.
The most common size of pot that garden plants come in are 9cm/1L/3L/5L this is in reference to the diameter at the top of the pot.
9cm potted plants still remain the most popular cost effective option though, they just may take a little patience to allow them to grow into full maturity once planted in your garden.

Top Tip
Avoid overfeeding Mulberry plants, as too much fertiliser can encourage leafy growth at the expense of fruit.
How to Water
Water Mulberry plants regularly during the first growing season, keeping the soil evenly moist but never waterlogged. Once established, it only needs watering in dry spells, with container‑grown plants benefiting from more frequent checks to prevent the compost from drying out.
How to Plant
Plant Mulberry in a sunny or lightly shaded spot, setting it into well‑drained soil at the same depth it was growing in its pot. Firm the soil gently around the roots, water thoroughly, and add a layer of mulch to help it settle and retain moisture as it establishes.
