Pomegranate is an underrated shrub, not often seen in gardens but surprisingly ornamental. For a long season over summer, it bears distinctive and intriguing bright orange flowers. The blooms have crepe-like petals that unfurl like little parcels from stiff, funnel-shaped buds. Their bright vermillion colour stands out beautifully against the small, glossy foliage. In hot seasons the flowers may be followed by spherical, pomegranate fruit.
Punica granatum forms a rounded, multi-stemmed shrub or small tree. Although evergreen in Mediterranean climates, when grown in the UK it is deciduous, the new leaves in spring emerging bronze. In particularly cold areas it can be grown in a large container and moved to a warmer position during the winter months.
Height and spread: 1.5-2.5m (5-8ft).
Pomegranate is an underrated shrub, not often seen in gardens but surprisingly ornamental. Grow Pomegranate trees in rich fertile, well drained soil. For the best chances of fruiting choose a warm, sheltered position in full sun. Prior to planting, incorporate plenty of well rotted manure or garden compost into the soil to improve drainage and soil fertility. Plant Pomegranates at the same soil level as they were growing at the nursery.JAN | FEB | MAR | APR | MAY | JUN | JUL | AUG | SEP | OCT | NOV | DEC |

Live Plants
Dobies strives to ensure that all its plants are delivered to you in the perfect condition for planting. While the majority of our nursery plants cope well with slight delays in intransit, sadly, the time it takes to deliver to certain locations in the UK means that we can't guarantee this for some of our smaller plug products and tender bedding and vegetable lines, which do not respond well to the extra journey time. So regretfully while we offer the majority of our live plant offering nationwide, we are unable to ship plugs, begging plants and tender vegetable plants to the following areas: HS, IV41-IV49, IV51, IV55-56, KW15-KW17, PA34, PA41-48, PA60-PA78, PA80, PH40-PH44, TR21-TR24, ZE1-ZE3.
