Thompson and Morgan Pomegranate Punica Granatum Provence Plant Pot 5L

The Pomegranate 'Provence' is a self-fertile tree that will bring an exotic touch to your garden. Admire the glossy foliage and the vibrant orange flowers as they bloom throughout the summer months. These blooms will then give way to brown, leathery-skinned fruits, ripening in milder autumns, ready for harvest in October and November. Savour the sweet-sharp flavour of the fleshy fruits, ideal for both desserts and savoury dishes, or simply extract their fragrant juice.
Despite its Mediterranean origins, 'Provence' is surprisingly resilient in the UK climate, withstanding temperatures as low as -15°C (5°F) when planted in a sheltered location. Alternatively, it will flourish in a large container, allowing you to move it indoors or to a warmer spot during the winter. Reaching a height of 3m (10ft) and a spread of 1.5m (5ft), this multi-stemmed tree offers both visual appeal and culinary versatility to your outdoor space.
How to Grow: Plant in a warm, sheltered location with plenty of sunshine. This variety is hardy down to -15°C (5°F) when sheltered. Water thoroughly during dry spells, especially when the plant is fruiting. Before planting, incorporate well-rotted manure or compost into the soil, and apply a mulch in spring. Prune from spring to summer, removing any misplaced, crowded, or damaged branches, but keep pruning to a minimum to avoid reducing fruit production.
