I have a few cold hardy pomegranate varieties & I'm looking to trade cuttings for other cold hardy or extra early pomegranates but I'm open to anything I don't already have. Thanks and I look forward to hearing back from everyone. __________________ South Carolina zone 7b-8

I have about 25 cultivars I will PM you a list. Many are young and in pots and they will go in ground next spring, Some are big enough for cuttings. I only had 6 cultivar in ground last winter. I can give you a rundown on those results, __________________ Phil N.GA.

I have extra Parfianka and Sverkhranniy in one gallon pots that I started this spring, if you are interested in those. Edit - Looks like there are also some thin cuttings of Agat and Surh-Anor that I could take. __________________ Andy - Zone 6a Lat 39.9º N, Alt 5390' Westminster CO ⚘ Scion List

Do any of you have the cultivar 'Favorite'? Has it fruited for you? I'd really love to get some seeds to play with from this one if possible. __________________ zone 5 Maine Seeking: Saint Martin, Naples White, Black Tuscan, Bécane, French Alps, Abruzzi, Tenica, Wild Mountain Figs from the coldest corners (Iranian, Turkish or other...would love seeds too)

How long does it take to get fruit from a cutting? Do they do well in pots? __________________ Zone 6A

Greg, I have Lyubimyi which I beleive is the original name for Favorite. Edible landscape Nursery states "Favorite is the Russian pomegranate variety Lyubimy which translates to Favorite." the spelling is a little different than I received as so I am not 100%. It has not fruited for me yet. __________________ Phil N.GA.

Yup, Lyubimyi is the one. Several other nurseries have it and spell it Lubimi, but I'm sure that's the same. If it ever fruits for you Phil and you have no need for the seeds I'd be thrilled. Anyone else have one setting fruit this year? __________________ zone 5 Maine Seeking: Saint Martin, Naples White, Black Tuscan, Bécane, French Alps, Abruzzi, Tenica, Wild Mountain Figs from the coldest corners (Iranian, Turkish or other...would love seeds too)

I haven't grown them in a pot, but here are some varieties that may work because of their size. Agat- This low growing Russian variety was developed to withstand heavy snow and cold. Medium-large fruit have very soft seeds and a sweet-tart taste when ripe. Heavily productive. Hyrdanar X Goulosha- Semi-dwarf plants only grow 3 to 5 feet tall and have large fruit.Variety was developed for high density plantings.

I'd love to grow a pom, but I was wondering: 1) Is rooting pom cuttings is any more difficult than rooting figs? 2) How many years does it take a cutting to go from newly rooted tree to bearing fruit? 3) If you have a tree well suited to your climate in a large 25-30 gallon container with optimal fertilizing/drainage...how productive can one expect a potted pomegranate to be? I saw Bass post one of his younger trees (less than 5 years I think) in ground ripened 30-50 fruits in ground. Thanks guys :)! __________________ Wish list- St. Rita, LSU Hollier, Brooklyn White, LSU Improved Celeste, Smith, St. Anthony

The key words are "can be" Alan. while they do have higher success rates over many other fruiting plants many fig growers may have low numbers due to the cuttings pushing new growth prior to root development and dying from transpiration. figs Root easily and relatively fast where pomegranates tend to take 1-2 weeks longer. The only 2 things I've found that root easier than or equal to figs are elderberries and forsythia. My number tips when rooting pomegranates are forget the humidity and plant deep 3 nodes or more. When growing in pots expect stunted growth, more watering, and fewer flowers which all equal lower production numbers. Expect to do some root pruning every 2 years or so minimum. If your climate allows in ground is a much better option, like Alan said 100 fruits is not uncommon but out of that 1/4 or more may split in unfavorable weather. The only perks of pots is the better drainage & lowers numbers lost to splitting. odds are in 5 years you'll get around 20 fruits per bush and max out at around 30 shortly there after. this of course is depending on your pot size. One thing plaguing most zones that can grow pomegranates is that most poms ripen in Oct-Dec and need warm temps to ripen properly. Wonderful is only wonderful in zone 8b and up and even in 8b I've heard others say bad things about it. For the home gardeners north of zone 8 I'd suggest the Russian varieties offered by some online retailers both for early fruit development and cold tolerance. Eve is also a fairly common pomegranates with great cold hardiness but ripens early Nov. __________________ South Carolina zone 7b-8

Has anyone has luck growing (and getting them to produce fruit) parfianka, eversweet, or other soft seeded poms in zone 7a/6b? Also, any advice on whether or not parfianka would be a good candidate for a large container?

In my experience the harder seeded varieties are hardier than the soft seeded kind. Parfyanka has yet to establish it's self here and keeps dying back in my area but I got it in 2014 so it may be hardier once a little more established. I have yet to get a fruit from it and I don't have eversweet, sorry I can't be of more help. __________________ South Carolina zone 7b-8

Spartanburg is a little colder than my area of Catawba SC I'm about 5 miles north east of zone 8a. That said you should be able to grow almost anything I do because we do dip down to 9F every few years. Eve, Kazake, Saartuzki, Sakerdze, and sumbar have all done much better than others I've tested. State fair is another variety I've heard good things about along with Utah sweet, and russian 18. __________________ South Carolina zone 7b-8
