pomegranate (Seedling) 6/10BJ11_old_address's Edible FruitsUpdate: 4789 days 11hrs Comments: - It was on a Bunnings throw-out table and I couldn't resist! I stuck it straight into the ground and have poured my washing-machine run-off onto it. I've never had a plant thrive so much! It started at 20cm high and about 30cm wide ... in 4 months it was 1.5m high, about 2m wide and covered in fruit and flowers. I have hacked it back to about 80cm tall to encourage bushyness and a bit of strength (it was weedy). Nothing seems to worry it! Unfortunately I've only tried the fruit 'unripe' ... I think it has potential but might need to leave it on the plant longer! Plant appears to retain its leaves and flower year-round on about half the branches, but looses leaves on the other half! It is looking very lush with minimal water in the middle of summer. I don't think the fruit tastes the best - but these plants are tough, and can survive mistreatment in very poor WA soil and harsh WA sun. Next time, I'm investing in a non-seedling to get the superior fruit, but the plants are fantastic (even if the fruit is very seedy and not that exciting in the taste department). They are only watered every few weeks and are in the worst possible location - tough as old boots.

Pomegranate - Elcite (Grafted)![]() Update: 5468 days 16hrs Comments: - Purchased on the 5th of December as an older plant, not sure how old, waiting for a bigger pot at the moment. Potted up into its new pot early January 2010. Looking good, hoping for flowers next season.. 28 Feb - my pomegranate is flowering... yay.. I am very happy as I thought not long ago that it was sick as some leaves had yellow spots. But I was reassured by members of this forum that the spots looked more like a deficiency rather than a disease. You guys must have been right... hooray Planted: 2009 Height 1 metres Growing: In a Pot Qty: 1 Sun/Shade: Full Sun Water Given in: Spring Pollination: Self Pollination Fertiliser or Organics Used: Rooster Booster / Seamungus / Seafeed - applied alternatively Pest Control: Nothing as yet Organic Status:Organic Question: Pruning tips?
