watering
White mulberry (Morus alba 'Pendula') should be watered deeply once a week. The frequency can be reduced to once every 2 weeks in the cooler months. Make sure that the soil is kept moist but not water-logged. Make sure that the area is well drained so that the plant has access to plenty of oxygen. Avoid overwatering as too much moisture can cause root rot and other issues. During the warmer months, some plants may require an extra watering session.
sunlight
White mulberry (Morus alba 'Pendula') should be grown in full sun position for at least 6-8 hours per day. The plants prefer warm climates with long, hot summers; however, they can also tolerate partial shade in cooler climates. For best results, they should be planted in an area that receives bright, indirect light throughout the day. In general, the more sunlight the plant receives, the healthier and more vigorous it will be. Additionally, it’s important to ensure that the soil does not become waterlogged. Ensure that you promptly remove any dead or wilted leaves.
pruning
White mulberry (Morus alba 'Pendula') should be pruned lightly in late winter or early spring in order to keep the shape and size of the tree in balance. Pruning should be done by removing any dead, damaged or diseased branches as they are found. Light pruning may also be done to encourage the growth of new branches. Heavy pruning should be avoided, as this will cause the tree to become unbalanced and too dense. Before pruning, it is important to familiarize yourself with the natural shape of the tree in order to maintain its form. Whenever possible, pruning should be done so that the tree maintains its natural shape.
