It looks great! How does pomegranate do by you?

No problem, very, very easy. It's one of those dwarf, ornamental varieties--I picked it up in NYC's Chinatown a few years ago. I might end up moving it--it's getting crowded out by lavender and rosemary (two of my favorite herbs). Mind you, pomegranate is deciduous so there's not much to look at in the winter--but it does not suffer die back. What has been really spreading nicely this year is this garden area is the Opuntia cacti--no surprise I guess based on this Spring's and early Summer's weather patterns--lavender and rosemary were also very colorful.

Excellent, Mine is potted, They really do well in a temperate climate.

I always hear how they do so bad in wet climates so Im glad they survive our wet climate! I have to admit that Im not actually a fan of pomegranates but I like the look anyway!
Thanks for the info on that!

TZ, I don't like the fresh fruit either, I grow it mainly as a conversation piece and and I have a sub-collection of traditional Asian plants. But you can buy pomegranate juice (w.o. the seeds) and enjoy its health benefits. You're right they are arid loving plants--that's why I have them in a raised bed with the lavender and rosemary--it bakes there mid day which is why I spend yesterday's rainy day working there.

Do you know the variety of Pomegranate? Also, does it fruit where you live?

Very nice Pindo. Puts mine to shame.

How do you protect it during the winter?

JL, it has not been through a winter yet. Two Trachys behind it have been through three winters and looking good to go skywards now. I most likely will protect the Pindo as I did with the Trachys from the first two winters. For the Pindo, might tie the leaves up with bubble wrap and wrap the trunks with burlap. For earlier protection with the Trachys, I just wrapped up the trunks with insulating blankets--leaving the leaves exposed.

With respect to the pomegranate, it's just a dwarf ornamental really grown more for its small container size and flowers. It's lush enough but doesn't seem to flower. This may be because it's crowded in a bed of rosemary and lavender and being smothered.

I still have a couple of yuccas to put in--found an enormous Yucca recurvifolia in someone's lawn debris recently. Also need something flowering to bring some color.

I have the exact same one, its sort of spider-like now. Bigger leaves are coming. Is this the first year for that pindo in the ground?

Not sure which plant you're referring to as "the exact same one".

The Pindo palm was only planted in April of this year. The Trachys have been in the ground for three years and getting big fast!
