Question: I Just bought a Pakistani Fruiting Mullberry tree. How big does it grow? How much room does it need?

The Pakistan Mulberry is a very prolific fruiting tree and should provide you will delicious 3"-5" long raspberry-like fruit.
Mulberry trees are fast growing and can get quite large. The Pakistan Fruiting Mulberry can get up to 40-50 feet tall and 40-45 feet wide. We usually prune them to keep them half that size. Of you "bob" or pollard them as some do, you will not get much fruit and make an ugly tree in my opinion.

You have posted to HelpMeFind/Roses. If you want information about your fig tree, you should probably do a Google search for information or contact the supplier directly.
Smiles,

Thank you for this information. I will keep close watch for problem It continues to look well most of the time and wilting has decreased. Actually it's getting many new leaves and all look healthy.

Figs are a water sensitive plant. Over watering can create root problems, especially if poor drainage.
I'm concerned that you have wilted leaves. This means the roots probably are not fully established or have some root damage already. A normal soil profile, if watered deep, would have sufficient moisture for a fig tree to not wither each afternoon.
1) If you have good drainage, soak the tree well for a few hours so water goes deep and see if that will keep it un-wilted for a few days.
2) If not, you will have to water lightly daily to keep the tree alive through the hot months and then hope the roots develop deeper in the cooler months when you are able to not water for a few days on end.
Good luck.
