My Packastani Mulberry

[Smokymist]

This is THE year...I mean I have poms on my miniature pomegranates, more figs than I've EVER had, my cucumbers went wild and well everything is growing so much. I am afraid the peach tree that we planted in the biggest pot on earth has rooted to the ground, through the pot, as have my packastani mulberry and one of my favorite fig trees. So when we move, in a few months hopefully....is there a safe way to unroot the mulberry from the ground ? The peach is probably a gonner it's so big now I doubt I could get it up, and figs will just survive. It's the mulberry I'm worried about.

Dig around the pot and save as many roots as you can. You will have to cut the pot from the tree after you get it removed from the ground. Even if you loose some roots the tree should be fine.

They are pretty tough like Figs...after all they are related to figs. lol
Mike's suggestion is what I would do.

Has your Pakistani Mulberry done well in East Tennessee? I hesitated to get one because I thought it got too cold here. I would love to have that variety, but wasn’t too sure if it would survive. I’m a little bit north of Knoxville.

I'm a little bit south of Knoxville. Ktrain sent me one, and I had one other one, and it's the older one that has shot up like this. It made it just fine through our winter up here in Seymour.

Thanks! That’s good to know!
