Deciduous fruiting shrub or small tree has striking displays of orange-red flowers in summer, followed by soft seeded, red, tangy fruit in early fall. Use this small pomegranate tree as container plant, espalier, hedge or accent.
Prefers enriched soil with good drainage. During blooming period increase watering, but reduce frequency when fruiting. Feed in early spring with a fruit tree fertilizer. Prune to shape in early spring.
These characteristics apply to the greater Sacramento area and nearby regions.
