Description

Pomegranate is an underrated shrub, not often seen in gardens but surprisingly ornamental. For a long season over summer, it bears distinctive and intriguing bright orange flowers. The blooms have crepe-like petals that unfurl like little parcels from stiff, funnel-shaped buds. Their bright vermillion colour stands out beautifully against the small, glossy foliage. In hot seasons the flowers may be followed by spherical, pomegranate fruit.

Punica granatum forms a rounded, multi-stemmed shrub or small tree. Although evergreen in Mediterranean climates, when grown in the UK it is deciduous, the new leaves in spring emerging bronze. In particularly cold areas it can be grown in a large container and moved to a warmer position during the winter months. 

Height and spread: 1.5-2.5m (5-8ft).

How to Grow
Grow Pomegranate trees in rich fertile, well drained soil. For the best chances of fruiting choose a warm, sheltered position in full sun. Prior to planting, incorporate plenty of well rotted manure or garden compost into the soil to improve drainage and soil fertility. Plant Pomegranates at the same soil level as they were growing at the nursery.
More Info
Keep weeds and grass clear from within a 30cm radius of base of the tree. In spring, apply a mulch of well rotted manure or garden compost to the base of the tree. This will help to retain moisture throughout the summer. Water Pomegranate trees well during particularly dry periods. Pomegranate is best grown as a multi-stemmed tree on a short stem. Prune Pomegranate plants from spring to summer. Select 3 or 4 low branches to form the main framework of the tree, and remove any misplaced, crowded and damaged branches. During the first 3 years shorten the main branches by a third of the previous season's growth to develop a well branched plant. Thereafter pruning should be kept to a minimum as over pruning can reduce fruiting. Pomegranates produce suckers and these should be removed from the base of the plant. Harvest Pomegranate fruits using secateurs when the crown at the base of the fruit has become curled and brown.
