First Pomegranate, Fruiting Citrus, and Plant Propagation Update - September 18, 2024

Harvesting our first ripe Crimson Sky pomegranate. A quick look at all of our fruiting citrus trees, some are starting to show signs of ripening. Plus an update on the progress of the citrus trees that we rooted from cuttings.

Great collection of trees. I am also in SE carolina and was wondering what you do in the winter with your container citrus? Do you move them into a greenhouse and keep them there all winter, or do you move them outside on warm winter days? I moved my citrus in and out during winter, but had a lot of defoliation. Trying to figure out how to best prevent defoliation.

I have been moving them in and out in the earlier part of the season but once winter fully hits I pretty much leave them in the greenhouse until the spring unless we end up with an extended period of warmer weather.

In citrus which rootstock u have used

[@tdhomestead]

The only trees that I have propagated myself are rooted cuttings. The grafted trees I have were purchased from different nurseries and are in a few different rootstocks; US-897, Rich 16-6, C-32, US-802, Flying Dragon, and couple that I am unsure of what they are.
