White mulberry tree no buds or leaves

Belinda asks:

Question

Hello, I have a large approx 5m tall established white mulberry tree which usually has buds and leaves by now. We are in Melbourne and I just realised that the tree has nothing not even buds. I have tried bending twigs and it is green inside and flexible not dry. Can anyone tell me what I can do to my beautiful tree.

Answer

The fact that the limbs are green and flexible is a good sign the tree is still alive. Was there any change in the mulberry trees water or nutrients or any significant damage to the roots that may have occurred over the past season? Drought and other environmental factors could be causing the slow development.

Your best option now is to wait and hope the leaf buds begin to develop. Unfortunately there is no quick fix in this situation.

Thanks for the gardening question!
