I brought my pom tree in late fall and all the leaves fell off :(. I hope I didn't kill it. Also, how often do you water your plant? Yours looks about the size of mine. I know it tends to like dryer soil but how dry. I have a moisture meter but not sure i'm giving it too much or too little.

I have a pomegranate plant right now but what would you recommend for better fruit production. Should I keep it bushy or tree
-
My pomegranate is covered with fruit. It"s April in Ohio. Do I need to get rid of some of the fruit and/or do I need to stake it? It's a baby about 4 or 5 feet tall and I'm afraid the heavy fruit might break the branches. Please let me know.

that's the flower
-
Actually that looks more like a flower bud. Please show us an update on how the actual fruit that resulted from that flower looked like.

really informative video. I´m starting my seeds today :)
-
how long did it take before your tree produced that little pomegranate?
-
yeah, I am going to try one today after watching this. I have the seeds, I just didn't know what to expect.

Thank you for the videos. Around a week ago I bought a pomegranate on the store and I'm waiting for the seeds to germinate. With God's help mine will be as big as yours. Since I live in Dominican Republic I think is going to be easier for me to keep them healthy. I just wanted to ask you how often do I have to water then and how many hours of sun should they receive once they grow?

did the fruit ever get big?
-
wow thats really amazing....
-
Chip, how is your pomegranate doing now?
-
It is very nice tree! did you prune it in the first year aswell?
-
It's been several months now and I am curious how the flower is doing? Hopefully its a fruit now and growing large!
-
What fun! What did you feed it and how often?
-
That is so cool that you got a fruit. Mine tree is about seven feet tall right now and it lost most of its leaves during the winter. I am hoping it was from the cold and not from a disease. Time will tell I guess. Congrats on your first fruit. So exciting.

what size pot are you using?
-
In USA areas which get cold winters (say, too cold to grow lemons outside), pomegranates can be kept indoors, in mid-Winter at least, in a large tub (prune as needed). You have a beautiful flower-bud in the video but such a young tree may not carry it all the way to a mature fruit. My, shop bought plant is similar in size to yours and had several flowers last Summer. Mine are growing outside, so they lose their leaves in Autumn (Fall), our winters here are mild enough ( Christchurch, New Zealand, at 43*South latitude, maritime climate, small overnight frosts thaw daily). Previously I lived in the "almost outback" semi-aridlands of Australia and they grew very well there and fruited well. All of my Australian ones grew from cuttings taken from a neighbours. In mild winter climates, Planted in the ground, they can form a large bushy shrub several metres tall with some spines. Can be either deciduous or semi-evergreen in sub-tropical and Mediterannean climates. Here mine lose their leaves early well before Winter.

I though it was dwarf, cos it looks so. Keep us updated. Tell us where are you from. I also have one. It is 1,5 year old and it is about one meter tall. I am from Lithuania.

Thank you for showing us your success! A couple of years ago I purchased two varieties online and planted them outside. Parfianka and Desertnyi are the names of each and are suppose to be a high quality fruit. The Parfianka variety seems to be more vigorous than the other but neither hold up to Tennessee winter! They both died completely back to the ground last year but sprang back to life with some miracle-gro and SUN come late spring! Late this fall I decided to try and clone both varieties with some success. I have several Parfianka clones that are doing fairly well but none of the Desertnyi variety survived. However, with God's help they will come back to life in spring 2015 and I will try again with the Desertnyi and see what happens. I am doing this so I can bring them inside during the winter months so they will eventually produce fruit. Your video gives me hope that mine can do the same!
