It may be that the plant you have isn't a fruiting variety. Also even if a seedling from a fruited variety is planted it may not produce fruit. A friend passed along a seedling from her pomgranate tree and though it has fruit they never ripen and are not edible. So I learned the hard way.

"Wonderful" is a good fruiting variety available from most plant nurseries if you want to be sure and have fruit.

Thank you, Roselee. Disappointing though. But the tree does produce a few fruits. Is that the case with the non-fruiting varieties you mentioned.

Sorry, but I don't know. Perhaps someone else can say. Most fruit trees need a fair amount of sun. Does yours get sun?

I have a dwarf that produces fruit but it is not edible. I tried anyway to know for myself and fruit was extremely acid. Nothing I'd ever want to eat or even try again

As to yours not producing fruit, could deer have eaten flowers and so no fruit?

Also Bluehaven, did you plant it? Do you know what variety it is?

When we moved to Houston 4 years back, I saw it in a nursery & bought it without knowing much about the variety. It is pretty big now. It produces a lot of flowers. But I get only 3 or 4 fruits in a year. Here is a picture.

vossner, no deer problem. The yard is fenced. In the last few weeks, the tree was full of flowers but most of it has fallen now.

Texas Gardner mag had an article about a year ago about a pomegranate

Grower in sw texas. Maybe check with them.

My gf always said the key to growing pomegranate is water

this may help

No experience with pomegranate yet, but have seen lower yields on other self-fertile fruits in absence of another pollinator. Could see if hand pollinating leads to more fruit. If so, have no idea on how to encourage more of the right insects/birds to visit your tree.

Ornamental pomegranates can produce fruit, although it is smaller, and is not edible. Fruiting pomegranates generally take several years before they produce good fruit yields. Poor pollination can, of course, be a factor in your tree not producing fruit.

'Mamachili' had 144 fruits this year from her 'Wonderful' variety of Pomegranate. She brought some juice to me. Oh my goodness, it was absolutely wonderful! Addicting almost!

Maybe she'll chime in here and offer some tidbits.

Roselee, thank you for checking with Mizan and providing so much of information. It really explained a few things for me - like last year the flowers during early summer produced a few fruits than the blooms from spring. I have never trimmed this tree. Probably I'll try trimming it a little during fall & see if that makes a difference next year. Have to figure out how differentiate a male and female flower in pomegranate trees too..
