Why Choose Fruitless Mulberry Pollarding in Redding?

Fruitless Mulberries are popular in Redding for their quick growth and dense summer shade, but that growth comes with challenges:

Heavy limbs that can snap during fall and winter storms.
Overgrown canopies that block sunlight or damage fences, sheds, and rooftops.
Shorter lifespan without proper maintenance.

Pollarding is a proven pruning method that:

Keeps Mulberries compact and manageable.
Prevents dangerous limb failure.
Encourages healthy regrowth.
Extends the overall lifespan of your tree.

Fruitless Mulberry Facts & Overview

The fruitless Mulberry (Morus alba ‘Fruitless’) is one of the most common shade trees in Shasta County. Homeowners love them because they:

Grow 3–4 feet per year when young, quickly establishing shade.
Reach 30–50 feet tall with a wide canopy spread of up to 40–50 feet.
Provide dense summer shade, helping reduce cooling costs.
Adapt well to Redding’s heat, rocky soils, and drought conditions.

Because they thrive in our climate and offer quick, reliable shade, fruitless Mulberries became a go-to choice for Redding neighborhoods built in the 60s through the 90s.
