Planting & Care
Plant your Parfianka Pomegranate starter in a location with full sun and well-draining soil. Dig a hole twice as wide as the root ball and set the plant at the same depth it was growing in its pot. Backfill with native soil, water thoroughly, and apply a layer of mulch to conserve moisture. Water regularly during the first growing season to help roots establish. Once established, pomegranates are drought-tolerant but benefit from consistent watering during fruit development.
Prune in late winter to remove dead or crossing branches and to shape the plant. Pomegranates produce fruit on new growth, so light annual pruning encourages better yields. In colder zones, grow in a container and move indoors during winter. Fertilize in early spring with a balanced fruit tree fertilizer. Watch for common pests like aphids and whiteflies, and treat as needed.
