I have a question, does anybody have it in ground in this zone? And what about the fruit? Do fruit are ripe or season is too short for them?

haven't tried it yet but heard good things about it being hardy, as far as the ripening well in zone 6 thats another story. Pomegranates need heat during the ripening period for proper development of flavor. In areas where high temperatures are low 70's early September may have trouble ripening any pomegranate. That said if you got the room try it. Ff you want to also try Kaim-Anor, Kara- Kalinski, Saartuzki, or Sakerdze let me know maybe we can trade a few cuttings.                   

Hello!
Bass Has this variety in ground, in Pennsylvania. I think he is in the same zone like us. He got ripe fruit from this variety in October. But first he have to confirm my statement. But before you start to search for this variety, you have to know here in Europe we have a very hard thing. The only nursery who sells this variety in my knowledge is Pierres baud.

В России также  растут гранаты. Урожай сегодня.  

That's a beautiful Pom, thanks for the picture Vladis. I met a local Syrian man who has a pomegranate he calls High Lemon. It is a good one for my zone, no dieback from last winter and plant is full of fruits this year. His fig tree also survived the winter.

I'm trying to get a few Pom going, that one is a beauty I will have to look for it!!

For 8 years I've grown salavataki 2 years after planting in ground I got the first blooms and a couple small pomegranates. After that it was producing 30-50 large pomegranates and ripened mid October. They were delicious. Last winter it remind constantly below -5°F for several days and many of the branches died back. The tree is alive now but not bearing this year. In selling my house along with many of my in ground trees now.

@ Bass
with your fig collection???
you will probably find a buyer from this forum!!!!!!!!
good luck with that and i hope you will create many wonderfull memories in the next

My Salavatsky looks dead.  It got down to 32 F here Saturday morning.  All the leaves are dead anyways.  Did it just go dormant?  New tree, about 18" tall.  

I would highly recommend Parfianka.  It's the best pom in many taste tests and a beautiful bush in my yard.

Excuse my misspelling of lemon, Maris, I hope you don't mind me posting this picture in your thread.

High Lemon, cold hardy Syrian pomegranate-

I planted a small salavatski this year. I don't know if it'll survive here in pittsburgh though.

In the Spring of 2013 I planted a Salavatsky pom. next to a south facing brick wall of my house.  Other than adding 2-3 inches of shredded leaves around the base I didn't protect it for the winter.  Well, as you all know we had a much harsher winter than normal.  It died back to the ground and twice sent up shoots from ground level only to have the shoots die.  It finally died completely.  I decided to replace it with a variety called "Favorite" a.k.a. "Lyubimy" which I obtained from Edible Landscaping Inc.  According to persianmd2orchard's results it is more cold hardy than Salavatsky although the latter gives slightly larger fruits.

Name of the variety is unknown. I found by chance in 2013. Fruits of last fall were about 200 grams. This fruit weighs 92 grams. Taste sweet and sour, juicy, hard seeds.

ok, great!  thank you!  I got quite a few poms in pots.  I need to give them more attention than my figs!  I think I will start today!
