Currently I have 2.  One is 1mtr high, which I bought at the market, not long ago.  Stil in it's pot awaiting planting.  The other is a seedling 40cm high, still in it's pot which I bought at a nursery two years ago.  I'm trying to shape it, so I pruned back hard last winter.

pomegranate (Seedling) ^6/10

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 - dwarf ^5/10

Comments: -

This is a lovely plant, and so easy to look after.  I had about 10 fruit off it last year but they were very sour.  I have since been told the dwarf varieties are more for looks than for the fruit, so wished I had known that before I paid nearly $50 at Bunnings.  I had it in a pot, but will find a place in the garden amongst other ornamentals for it.

Comments: - Purchased this heirloom as a seedling from Diggers a couple of years ago.

Lost all leaves in Brisbane Winter but has come back nicely through sping and summer. starting to prune now. Sorry - difficult to see in the pic.
