I need to trim mine back too but I think the flowers are only grown on the tips so I dont want to trim it back yet...especially when I dint get any flowers last year.

Yes. The flower buds will emerge at the tips of branches either the short or long ones. Of course we don’t want to see the flowers on the long branches, so I will prune the long branches. With the short branches, I will not prune them.

The average temperature is about 45 F. With breeze, it could easily go down to 32 F !
I don’t bring any tree inside even though with tropical trees

Beautiful trees and an inspirational thread.
I have a pom growing in my backyard that I'm planning to start some air-layers of in a few months. Been eagerly awaiting the right time and I was excited to stumble upon this thread. Do you have any experience starting poms by air-layering, or are all of your trees cuttings?
Again, beautiful trees and exciting to see someone geographically nearby having such success with pomegranates.

Thanks for your kind words.
I did quite a bit of air-layering on my yard fruit pomegranates. It is very easy to be succeeded. The best time to do that is in the end of spring .
Good luck to you.

I started working on pomegranates today. All of dead branchlets were removed and this year growing branches were pruned back to 1-2 nodes depending on their locations.
This tree has one fruit remaining on
after removing the fruit
as you can see, its live vein has a lot of nodular masses !

This one is a fruit type pomegranate with pink flower. It was a big branch cut from the landscape tree over 3 years ago. I carved the upper trunk 2 years ago.
the lower trunk will be carved soon
After wires were removed

With dead twigs gone and general pruning, they really tightened up and look clean!
