Cultivation and Care of the Horse Tooth Pomegranate Tree:

The pomegranate is a fruit plant that does not give any kind of problem from the cultural point of view; once the plant has been pruned to a shrub or sapling development, we will obtain a vigorous and healthy pomegranate, which will tolerate the summer heat, the winter cold, the typical drought of the hot months. It is planted in a very well drained soil, even stony and poor, to favor the development of the root system of a young specimen, it is advisable to work the soil thoroughly before planting it, possibly adding fresh soil and a little fertilizer natural. We undoubtedly choose a very bright and sunny position, as a pomegranate placed in the shade will produce few flowers and will tend to deteriorate irreparably over the years. Pomegranates withstand winter temperatures close to -10 ° C, even if a small plant recently planted may need the protection of a non-woven fabric in case of very intense frosts. These plants tolerate drought very well, and fear water stagnation; if we have recently planted our pomegranate, let's water it sporadically, avoiding watering if the soil is still wet, or if rainfall is abundant. The plants that have been planted for a long time tend not to need any care, except for a light pruning at the end of winter to remove any branches damaged by bad weather; in plants cultivated for fruit, it may happen that a large part of the fruit has to be removed, leaving only a few, to obtain larger berries.
