 Mulberries won't fruit well if they don't have full
sun. If palce ment is between trees and there is light
on the Southeast to SOuthwest for the trees to get
alot of sun they would fair better. They are an early
succession species. Cutting back will invigorate them,
therefore little fruit for a year or so.
