I have some non bearing mulberry trees that are over 30 years old and seem to be doing good. They were here before I married my husband. We live in the semi-desert area of Texas and I am wondering if and when I need to fertilize them?
Typically, these will do fine on their own. They are a semi-invasive species. You can fertilize, though, if you would like. This would definitely boost their growth.
Since this is a non-fruiting cultivar, you can use 3-1-1 fertilizer once each year in spring. Here is an article that will help: https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/ornamental/trees/fruitless-mulberry/fruitless-mulberry-trees.htm

it is watered every day
Is this a new planting? If you have newly planting this tree it certainly could be watering issues or transplant shock. 1 inch of water per week is recommended for optimum care.
If you have an established tree with curling leaves it could be a pest issue.
Inspect the tree carefully for other signs of pest or disease.

Some branches are dead and the bark is coming off in large patches. What is wrong with my fruitless Mulberry trees?
Fruitless mulberry trees are fast-growing and fairly large, providing dense shade and thick, lateral branches for climbing. But they are fairly disease-prone and also tend to have shallow roots, which can make them difficult to maintain.
You may want to have the tree examined by an Arborist.
Hello, does anyone know what the name of this tree is? It’s our front yard tree. I love it as I think it’s beautiful. The other day a neighbor stopped by and asked if they could get some leaves to use for warms that they have. Made me wonder what kind of tree it is. If anyone can tell from the leaves I’d really appreciate it. Thank you in advance. Jaamine
It appears to be 'white mulberry', probably 'fruitless mulberry'. And the request for leaves was probably for silk worms.
For 50 years the fruitless mulberry limbs have been cut off in the fall, back to their central stem. Now there are huge burls ( 12" to 18" ) which look terrible in the winter months. Can these huge burls be cut off completely so that new growth will be at the end of the limb?
Yes, you can prune off the knobs to just below. Observe the multiple sprouts in the spring and let them grow out a couple of feet, then thin the excessive sprouts, selecting two or three in the best placement to allow to grow and become new scaffold branches.
In time and with diligent follow up pruning, you can restructure the tree. There will be some concern for decay in the large cut surfaces. Eventually that could become serious wood rot that will weaken the structure and allow breakage.
That type of assessment and follow up is best addressed by a local arborist.
