Correy says... A pomegranate tree will usually grow to around 3-7m if left to it's own devices. Their flowers are very big and pretty and the fruit looks like something out of another era. If you wanted to keep it smaller then you have 2 options 1 is root restriction to do this just grow your pomegranate in a pot. The second is pruning. Like most fruit trees they love to be pruned and you can keep it quite small this way. I am often amazed at the popularity of the Pomegranate at Daleys we have had people pay extraordinary freight just for this one tree because they don't seem to be able to get them anywhere else and to them it is worth it because they really love this plant. Here is a list of the different varieties: http://www.daleysfruit.com.au/fruit%20pages/pomegranate.htm It is usually the Pomegranate Wonderful that is most popularPictures - Click to enlarge Picture: 1 Time: 13th September 2007 8:46amReply | LIKE this Answer(0) | LIKE this Question (0) | Report About the Author CorreyWoolloongabba, QLD#UserID: 3Posts: 493View All Correy's Edible Fruit Trees

allybanana says... If it has only been in a year and you get most of the roots i dont think a heavy prune will be neccecary they are tough(others may disgree i have only transptanted cuttings that have rooted and found next to no transplant shock)if you are concerned you have damaged the roots to much, perhaps just thin out some of the middle branches to start creating its future shape. Some recomend keeping it uncluttered in the middle to let in the sun, unless you want a different shape. cheers ally Time: 5th July 2010 12:58pmReply | Edit | LIKE this Answer(0) | LIKE this Question (0) | Report About the Author eden#UserID: 0Posts: View All 's Edible Fruit Trees

Its the only variety I've tried but apparently the Russians believe their Rosavaya is better (lol), im also growing a variety called Elche so hopefully ill taste some fruit by winter!

MaryT says... Hard to say, Isabel; can you post a photo? We were saying on another thread that some of the nursery's mix are quite dry so someone actually shake all the soil off before repotting. I never did that but I do soak the plant well then repot in premium mix and water in with Seasol. Leave drop is sometimes not a problem if you see new shoots coming after it; have a good look. I wouldn't overdo fertilisers until you see growth but if you do apply any, make it organic and slow release. What position is it in and have you had sudden drop of temperature since you bought it?

Db says... I'm growing 4 different pomegranate and all dropped lots of leaves after transplanting in bigger pot, so I'm guessing it's just transplant shock. I'll suggest you keep giving seasol once a week untill you see new growth. After couple of months mine started growing very well, one is holding one fruit as well ( within 6 months of purchase). Also, consider transplanting it in ground where they thrive. All of mine were in in pot initially for couple of months and they did not grow much. I transferred all but one in ground and they are now growing vigorously but the one in pot is hardly putting any new growth.

Morag says... Just wanted to share - you can cultivate cuttings from an established pomegranate tree - when pruning, pull off the side shoots, dip in rooting powder, and plant in good quality potting mix. Water initially, then put the pots out in the garden, in a sheltered position - I've had these flower! Dwarf trees will give poor quality fruit - better with the 'real' trees, unless you only want for decoration. Pretty orange flowers will turn into pomegranates. The less you fuss with them, the better. Mine grew best in full sun, shaded from the western sun. Don't overwater.Good luck! (Pomegranates are excellent for inhibiting tumours - and very high in antioxidants.

SueBee says... Lize, it should recover, make sure your soil is not water resistant or the pot rootbound but do make sure it is not too windy where you keep it too- wind can dry out a pot in minutes as can over 40deg days and you are having your share of those. Pomegranate are fairly drought hardy once established but definitely do not like wet feet so keep it on the dry side of damp for a few weeks to let it recover.Maybe some seasol in the next watering will help the roots recover?Good luck.Time: 4th January 2017 1:15pmReply | LIKE this Answer(0) | LIKE this Question (0) | Report About the Author SueBeeGlenormiston South,3265,VIC#UserID: 15056Posts: 93View All SueBee's Edible Fruit Trees

I made a special potting mix for it; Scott's premium (blue bag) potting mix, mixed with perlite, crushed eggshell, peat moss and fertilized with sudden impact by Neutrog. Works a treat. Fruited immediately just after 1-1/2 yr from purchase.

FRANCIE says... Greetings Allybanana :), thanks so much for your post re Pomegranates in Eden. We will be relocating there from VIC in the next 18 mths and have started out some pomegranates in large pots to take with us. We have an Azebizchan, Elche, WOnderful and AU Ben Hur. They are about a metre tall at this stage and just wonderful. It will be exciting to see how they go when they get put in the ground at Eden :). They have a little yellowing leaf at the moment from below 15 degree nights and some consistent rain we have had in South East VIC, but they also have new growth, so I reckon they are going to go the distance no probs. We are also bringing up some AU red pawpaw, figs, mangoes and frangipanni to keep them company so we'll see how they cope as well. cheers Frances :)Time: 21st May 2019 2:54pmReply | LIKE this Answer(0) | LIKE this Question (0) | Report About the Author FRANCIESALE#UserID: 19672Posts: 5View All FRANCIE's Edible Fruit Trees
