Caring for pomegranate trees

March 13th, 2009

Mmmm, we love the pomegranate, that much is for sure. The only thing better than buying the tasty and healthy yumminess from the store is having your own tree! Now obvious geographical barriers prevent some of you from this pride in ownership, but for the rest of you, here’s some ideas on how to care for your pomegranate tree.

The trees generally can withstand temperatures as low as 10 degrees, but citrus climates are still the best for them, in my opinion. Plant your tree in deep, heavy soil. Be sure to maintain the correct soil moisture in the summer and early fall (when you’ll be harvesting and enjoying pomegrate benefits).
