Running into mixed messages while reading about whether mulberries can be grown indoors or not. Does anyone know if they require their cold periods to live and function, or will they be healthy but simply not make fruit? I’d love to grow a berry bush or a similar sized ornamental shrub inside, but I do not have access to an outdoor space to give it chilling time. Has anyone done this before?
mulberries do require chilling hours. If you check out this site your might find something that fits.

A dwarf blueberry might be fine in a container, or a dwarf citrus tree like lemon or orange. Or a fig that doesn’t require chilling hours
