That is fantastic do you know what kind they are?
Mine all dropped their fruit this year for some reason. Or something ate them. Worth |

They just said Pomegranate- Azerbaijan. Don't know if the plant finally matured enough to produce fruit or if the mild winter allowed it.
Pomegranates do seem to produce sporadically in most parts of Texas. |

Yay! Great.
![]() I had a pomegranate seedling some years ago, but it died... I have thought about trying to grow a micro pomegranate. Nice to see a tree grown from a seed. When I asked for some tips back thensome years ago, I got plenty of advice how unwise and foolish an attempt it was - how pomegranates don't grow true from seeds yadda yadda. Your example encouraged me to try again ! ![]() |

Great job! I've got these seeds from a pomegranate fruit bought at our farmer's market. It was imported from Azerbaijan. Pomegranate is a traditional fruit/berry symbol of this country.
There so many pomegranate varieties there with different skin color. ![]() They have even The Pomegranate festival in the small local town Goycay in November. By the way, what is the height of your tree?
