It’s early September and both my Pomegranate trees are still flowering….and one has even set some fruit 🤗 #pomegranate #pomegranateflowers#gardeninginlondon
Your pomegranate trees look beautiful, Joe! It's great to see so many flowers on your seed-grown tree; they are very ornamental flowers. The larger one you planted last year looks great too. It's great that it's been able to set some fruit despite the cooler summer, hopefully in a warmer summer they will develop earlier 🤞
@@PeterEntwistle thanks Peter. I love the deep red colours of the flowers. It may be a little to late in the year for the fruit to mature, but definitely happy to know they can a least set fruit 🙌🏾🌱
Great to see several fruits set Joe, I fear they are about 2 months too late to reach an edible size but perhaps I'll be wrong 🤞. The bigger the tree the better the chances 😁
@@lyonheart84 thanks Brett. I do think you are right about being a couple months too late… but still pretty chuffed to see fruit set. Hopefully as both trees mature, we may get some decent sized, edible fruits in the future 🙏🏽🌱
Hi Joe, the flowers on your homegrown pomegranate are absolutely beautiful😍😍😍and your Italian pomegranate looks great as well, especially for its first year! Much love to London!😘🌿
@@MoebiusUK I’ve always loved Pomegranates, so to be able to grow them here in London outdoors is great. I love the flowers….and if the fruit gets to a mature size, that’s a bonus 🙌🏾
Lovely to see your pomegranate s have fruit set Joe.👏 I managed to film a couple of years ago a very large pomegranate tree here in Manchester that had fruit set. It was in a garden next to a wall which provided some protection, but the canopy as it was so tall was very exposed to wind etc. I think the age of the tree is definitely a factor in fruit set on the trees we grow in the UK.
@@louiseahmedtropicalplantgr5000 thanks Louise. Yes! I’ve seen your amazing video on the Pomegranate tree in Manchester fruiting 🤩 Your definitely right about the age of the tree being a factor in fruit set here in the UK.
@@farahbenbelgacem495 , surprisingly Pomegranates are pretty cold tolerant. They just need constant warm/hot summers to bear good sized, edible fruit. This summer in the UK hasn’t been the best, but the tree has still produced some fruit set. Definitely give it a go 🙌🏾🌱
Awesome that you have a seed grown pom that reached maturity. My "Wonderful" seed tree did the same this summer, even after dying back in one winter as they are not cold hardy up north where I am. Your poms will continue to grow up to hard frost, I don't pick my Afganski until mid November not letting the fruit get to 28°F (-2°C) for more than a couple of hours. That seems to be the number where most fruit will be damaged
@@raregrowsNJ thanks 🙌🏾 It really is rewarding seeing a tree you started from seed, begin your flower. It’s great to know the fruit will continue growing up until hard frost. I’m hoping they’ll flower earlier next year, for a better chance of mature, edible fruit. 🙌🏾🌱
Just found your channel. So jealous of your pomegranate fruit set 😅. I'm about 60 miles east of you and I havent managed that yet - I dont think we have your microclimate. Do you do anything else to them? Hope also one day to get my Feijoas to set fruit!
@@janebailey9228 hi Jane, I’m glad you have just discovered my channel 🤗 60 miles east from London is not bad at all. I hope you manage your push the growing boundaries where you are. I sometimes foliar (spray) feed my Pomegranates, but that’s all 😊 I hope you get your Feijoas to set next year as they are delicious 😋

You are so inspiring.
My garden is tropical because of you.

Hi Tina, the flowers really are beautiful 😍 it’s lovely to be able to grow these trees even in London.
Lots of love to Italy 🇮🇹😘🌱
They're really nice trees, Joe. I love the flowers on them.

Absolutely wonderful to see Joe. The secret appear to be microclimate, growing inground and the maturity of the pomegranate tree.
@@myexoticfoodplants6727 thanks Mike.
Micro climate is key for sure. I’m hoping for a better summer next year, so the trees flower much earlier 🙌🏾🌱
I`m quite surprised how pomegranates can grow in the UK weather, thanks for sharing Joe this will be my next tree trial for next year

I am so jealous! I can't even get mine to flower! :P
@@barshafoxman4169 😊 where are you based?
Cardiff :)
Not sure my garden is getting enough sun for them, tbh :p
@@barshafoxman4169 ok Cardiff 😊 yes sun ☀️ is key 🌱
