You dont see many large pom specimens along the atlantic,very nice!
Sorry, I got these replies too late! ;-)
May be it is too cold for pomegranate there?! But it would have had a lot of pomegranate in Florida, would not it?

Cross your fingers that I did not kill my Utah Sweet or my White flower that I got from San Gabriel. I think I got a little... excited when repotting...
How is your plant now?

Well they are alive... They did not leaf back out but still green soooo we shall see. My little Emperor that I got from @Eric Group is doing great! In addition to being the smallest leaf, they seem to be the most vigorous as well.

As long as it is still green, it will be fine. Now it is too cold for pomegranate to wake up.

This one has only 2 live veins. One is in the back and one is in the front. This tree is actually an inverted root cutting if you want to know. I created "inverted cutting technique" post while back in this forum. You may want to look for it to understand why this technique is worth to try! ;-)
I still need a lot of time to make this tree be perfected.

It goes down to the dead wood then comes right back up

I love this deadwood. It is liked a grey cat hairs. It is so smooth and soft looking!

I had no idea that they opened like that! When they are ripe?
Happy New Year, Judy
It was ripe about one month ago. It looks charm and sexy but very sour! ;-)
