Thanks for stopping by. Pruning will keep the tree healthy, balanced and in-check. Get some leather forearm gardening gloves if you can. And wear eye protection. If your comfortable you may enjoy pruning the pomegranate as much as I do. Take care.

@mightyboss3754 жыл бұрын
I have seen that the first year branches will produce some fruits, but the fruits will be small. Therefore I pull off blossoms on first year branches so that more energy goes to the second year branch fruits. Second year branches will blossom earlier and so will produce larger fruits. I try to leave sufficient second year branches to produce a sufficient harvest. Many branches and a bushy tree will produce a lot of small fruits, many of which will not fully ripen. So I thin shoots and branches to get larger ripe fruits. I also remove small fruits and blossoms in mid July, as these fruits will not have time to ripen. I prune much the same as this expert recommends. I am going to follow his recommendation to open up the centers of the bushes. Thank you for this video which has good information.

It is almost June now, and I only just discovered today that the "shrub" growing outside of my kitchen window is a pomegranate. The shape is very asymmetrical, and my inclination is to try to prune it (would be my first time pruning a tree/shrub), but I do not want to do it if it overall it would be bad for the tree. What do you advise? Wish I could show you some photos of it. I had no idea what it was upon moving into the house last November, but it did not look very robust at all, and I was totally surprised that it came back this Spring. It has not produced many blooms, though.

@ThomB1031 Жыл бұрын
Fwiw... i was able to start new saplings from wood cuttings last time I pruned. Air layering, from what I've read, has a higher success rate, but you don't want to do too many in one season. Growing the roots via air layering expends the host trees' resources.

I have a question for you. My 30 yr pomegranate tree has a big crop one year and then rests the following year with only about 20 fruits. I live in Santa Barbara, ca. Is this normal for this type of tree? I bought the house with the tree so I don’t know the variety. The productive years yield massive crops. I leave the unharvested fruits on tree as the birds enjoy the sweet fruit and one year a hummingbird made its nest in the gutted hard shell of the fruit. I was thrilled to have the old fruit repurposed for housing. My garden is a bit messy for the animals and birds.

Thank you for your videos. Just moved into a new home and inherited a pomegranate tree, lime and lemon tress. They all seem to be doing poorly. Not sure if the prior owners neglected them with water or did not prune. The pomegranate tree does look crowded with leaves and branches. Already has plenty of pomegranate, however, they are not quite red in color. My neighbor’s trees are deep in red, while mine lack in color. Any thoughts on why?. I will try to prune myself this winter. Your video gave great tips. Appreciate it!

They are very tall. At least one and a half times the one you pruned. Any particular suggestions? I read they fruit on new growth. Would that alter how you prune them? Thank you. Great video!
